Artwork location: Nigeria
Capture a lady in orange and her feline companion, a dialogue of complexity, consciousness, and existential connection between human and their pet. A cat, as indicated in this composition, is a pet associated with mystery and intrigue enigmatic lifestyle. The pet knows and understands its owner in times of solitude, grit, and subconscious mind. The lady, as symbolized in the composition, indicates the interplay between the human spirit and animal in coexistence through a delicate and warm color of orange hue, which symbolizes the dynamic reflection of the human core and the natural world.
The artist masterfully captured the cat's grace beside the lady as the composition radiates energy and warmth in an orange-clad environment, which converges the cat's charm. In essence, this painting is a thought-provoking exploration of pixelated colors in equilibrium within the intricate tapestry of human-pet existence.

Artist Statement
The ideas, issues and events arising from man's quest to contain and contend with these forces form the subject of my paintings. Given this background, my paintings are subtle but much defined with interlocking and wedges of colour combined like a mosaic to produce a solid, architectural structure, enhanced by the textured surface of the paint with women accorded with prominent attention, focus and more emphasis in my composition.
Women live in a male-dominated society, based on local cultural traditions with few rights and are at the receiving end of men's activities and yet strive to eke out and sustain living.
I celebrate them by weaving my composition around them most times in their hours of needs, joy, pain and other human activities.
