I don’t want to just paint a picture. I want a picture that captures the soul. I want a picture that captures personality. These are the things I want people to see. As an artist, I made my stamp by telling my TRUTH!" thesun.ng Do I consider my work to be specifically African art? Well yes... because I was born and brought up in Africa. I eat African food, drink African water, and you know, these are the things that made up who I am today. So basically my art is African art. My style changed when I started painting black women with my own dark skin color. www.youtube.com External links Category:Living people Category:1988 births Category:Painters from Nigeria Category:Modern artists
