Art Weekend: Collaboration

Hi, so this is slightly different from what is usually featured here but i specialise in ceramics, ya'll are going to be seeing more of these. So anyway, we were asked to depict something that speaks about collaboration. 

Art Weekend: Hope

I saw this picture and it touched me. So i decided to draw it. Hope is something we all have. We are alive because of it. We survive in this country because of it. We form relationships because of it. Heck, even buying a tin of milk is a form of hope. Because you have hope that you will find milk when you open the tin. This is the purest form of that singular emotion that keeps us going. I hope it does for you what it did for me. My name's Hope.

This is because we all get very tired at times.

Art Weekend: Cat

Hi. So i thought I'd do a cat this week. In this part of the world, Africa;especially in Nigeria, people believe that cats are agents of witchcraft or are even witches themselves. While that might be true, it doesn't stop me from believing them to be cute. I don't know about any other animal that can land on its own feet even after falling from a great height. I think cats are awesome.

Art Weekend: Clocks

I was asleep one day and it flashed before my eyes. I don't know if I was dreaming or if I was almost awake. I think it is one of those brief periods between sleep and lucidity. 

Art Weekend: Afro

This one was just a little doodle that turned out really cool, so i just did it on a bigger scale. I don't think I'm done, maybe I'll complete it later. I have this affinity for afros. I think it's completely African and I'm African. So it works.

Art Weekend: Familiarity

Familiarity  was a work I did for our class exhibition when I was in 200 level. The theme was 'eyes that have ceased to see'. A phrase gotten from J.P Clark's poem 'Casualties'.
