This watercolor painting was painted especially for an exhibition organized by the Embassy of Nigeria. The exhibition was attended by Mr. Adedeji Adelani Abidemi, the cultural attaché of the Nigerian Embassy, who gave a wonderful speech on the importance of cultural exchange between countries. He also awarded the artists selected by the jury, among whom I was one of them. Very proud! The painting captures the essence of Nigerian culture through its portrayal of Ladi, the young Fulani woman. The photograph, which served as the inspiration for this painting, was taken by the esteemed American photographer and traveler, Margo Davis - margodavisphoto dot com. Margo was visiting Ladi and her grandmother, Juma, in their round grass house on the Abet plain. Ladi herself is the focal point of the painting, exuding a sense of grace and resilience. With her striking features and captivating eyes, she embodies the beauty and strength of the Nigerian people. Painting serves as a symbol of the passage of time and the interconnectedness of past, present, and future in Nigeria. The original photograph was captured in the 1980s, representing the image of the past. In the present, we can envision Ladi as a thriving individual, carrying her heritage wherever she goes. One imagines she may now have a granddaughter as exquisite as Ladi herself once was. This painting is not just a depiction of a single person; it encapsulates the essence of Nigeria itself. It invites viewers to appreciate the country's rich cultural tapestry and envision the interwoven threads of its past, present, and future. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the enduring treasures Nigeria holds and the stories it has yet to share.

In my watercolors I gives credit to the beauty of nature, be it a beautiful landscape, flowers or animals. I puts her love and soul into watercolors, partly because it is freedom. Water can not be fully controlled; but real harmony doesn’t exist without chaos! In addition to the diploma of art school, I has a university degree in Mathematics, and, according to her, it helps in the creative work, as watercolors requires of the artist maximum concentration and strategic thinking.
