O. Yemi Tubi (MOYAT)




Artist Statement

"I am a Nigerian born, American trained Artist, currently residing in United Kingdom as an artist with creative and unique personal style. I do paintings in acrylic and watercolour but my favoured medium is oil paints. Most of my recent paintings were influenced by political and social upheaval of our world today and the works of the Renaissance artists. My works progress from political paintings to paintings of the facts of life of people. The theme of my works in general is "The Facts of Life: Roses and Thorns." Life is roses and thorns; sometimes it emanates sweet aroma of pleasantness and sometimes it pricks and causes pains. I often use Roses and Thorns for portrait paintings of the facts of life of people. I first used Roses and Thorns in my political painting -“THE BLEEDING ROSES”, since then I adopted Roses and Thorns as my own unique style."
