Omoluabi(the good child) is one of my on going series Titled OLD BUT GOLDEN.
The uniqueness behind this artpiece is by bringing the past to the present by using some of vintage objects.
Majority of the kids born in late 20's in africa dont know the benefits of counters, so am trying to pass information to them with my painting and am also using it as a medium for people that play with it to remember the good memories of the past,memories shared with their love ones,the innocent looks on their face,the beauty and the happiness it brings.
Omoluabi is actually playing with counters and counters is one of the techniques kids of olden days uses in solving there mathematics. They also uses it in playing with one another. It brings love and harmony between them.

Ganiyat Abdulazeez is a contemporary Nigerian painter. Her unique style seamlessly intertwines nature with the skin of forms, resulting in a body of work that is both visually compelling and conceptually rich. At the heart of Ganiyat's artistic exploration lies an obsession with the coral plant, specifically the Jatropha Multifida. This fascination serves as the cornerstone of her creative process, as she endeavors to infuse her paintings with the essence and texture of this remarkable plant. Through her experimental techniques, Ganiyat creates signature textures on the canvas, symbolically conveying the numerous healing properties associated with the single-trunked shrub.

In her works, Ganiyat Abdulazeez pays obeisance to the potent healing powers of nature. The incorporation of the coral plant into her art becomes a metaphorical expression of the resilience and vitality found in the natural world. Furthermore, her paintings serve as a poignant portal of remembrance, offering a nostalgic reflection on the profound impact of the coral plant on her childhood.

Ganiyat's artistic vision transcends mere aesthetic exploration; it becomes a profound homage to the symbiotic relationship between nature and human experience. Her paintings serve as visual narratives, weaving together threads of healing, memory, and the enduring influence of the natural world. Through her evocative artistry, Ganiyat Abdulazeez invites viewers to contemplate the interconnectedness of life and the enduring beauty found within the layers of nature's healing embrace.
