SENSUALITY 4: Beware of an Adulterous woMAN “For the lips of the adulterous woman drip honey, and her speech is smoother than oil; “Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to the grave. Keep to a path far from her, do not go near the door of her house”. Proverbs 5 verse 3, 5, 8. We live in an enchanting world; lots of things are being used to get our attention. Pornographic images no longer stay in dirty magazines on the top selves at the shops out of reach of the hands of innocent children but quickly land in the palms of their hands via the everyone-must-have gadget called the mobile phone. Young and old are being lured into the lives of crime and to their early deaths through the seductive images from their digital devices. These are what influenced O Yemi to illustrate some of the warnings from the book of Proverbs in the Bible with the title, “SENSUALITY 4: Beware of an Adulterous woMAN.” O Yemi intentionally wrote the word WOMAN in the title as woMAN to indicate that the problem of sensuality involves both sexes. In the Bible women caught in adultery were sentenced to death by stoning; what about men? The strongest man in the Bible’s strength was not matched to the seductive strength of the woman who betrayed him. The wisest man in the Bible lost his sense of reasoning due to his unhealthy appetite for exotic women worldwide. Men in power in our own world are still falling prey to the seductive power of women. Sex is natural and it is a God’s given gift but an abuse of it is dangerous and deadly.

O. Yemi Tubi - An Artist and Advocate for the world’s Peace. I am a Nigerian-born, American-trained Artist residing in the United Kingdom an artist with a unique personal style. Most of my recent paintings were influenced by the political and social upheaval of our world today and the works of Renaissance artists. “A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art” so said Paul Cezanne; I was moved by emotion to do most of my political and socially influenced paintings “THE EAGLE HAS LANDED” was done to speak about the American-led war on terror. My painting “THE BLEEDING ROSES” was done in solidarity with Christians beheaded by ISIS in Iraq and Syria. I used my paintings “AFRICAN’T”, “HUNGER IN THE LAND OF PLENTY” and “OIL: AFRICANS’ WEALTH AND WOE” to speak about the exploitation of African nations. The Painting depicts paradoxical poverty and the riches of Africa. my work, “THE FISHERS OF MEN” is about the horror of refugees drowning in the Mediterranean Sea. I also used my painting – “UKRAINE: THE UNFORTUNATE BRIDE” to speak about the America and Russia-influenced war in Ukraine. I desire my portrait paintings to be uniquely creative. I do not copy images from pictures. I create what the camera cannot create. I use portrait paintings to tell the stories about my subjects and often use my subjects’ professions to create their portraits as I did with the portrait of Professor Wole Soyinka, 1986 Nobel Prize Winner in Literature in my painting “SOYINKA: An Africans’ Literary Icon”, I used artist materials to create my painting “PORTRAIT OF AN ARTIST” and I used the violin to create the face of my subject in the “THE VIOLINIST” My works progress from political paintings to paintings of the facts of the 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 the sweet aroma of pleasantness and sometimes it pricks and causes pains. I often use Roses and Thorns for portrait paintings of the facts of the life of people. I first used Roses and Thorns in my political painting “THE BLEEDING ROSES.” Since then I have adopted this floral iconography style - Roses and Thorns as my unique style in some of my paintings like “DOMESTIC ABUSE”, and “MY MOTHER, Her Majesty Platinum Jubilee: Her Rosy Reign” to name a few. Roses are for achievements and other positive parts of life and Thorns are painful challenges and negative parts of life.
