A stream of conscious drawing on a canvas is my way to reduce paint waste. Whenever I have extra paint I'll use that paint to fill in the new painting little by little. I recommend excess paint paintings to any painter as crazy as I.
I'm in love with a painting because she wasn't in love with me.
It makes me think of the circus. It makes me happy. Makes me wish the sky rained color.
How could I be asleep? I'm Looking Right At You.

This composition of compiled sketches from the architecture of Spain, Morocco, and Portugal explores the interplay of spatial design with personal experiences and memory. The central, most contrasting element of the reflection pool elaborates on this idea: how can design transcend from its physical form into an emotional one? The range of scale, clarity, and contrast between the sketches plays with concepts of fading and lightbulb memories, hoping to urge the observer to consider the spaces they have visited and how these have impacted their lives- whether consciously or subconsciously.
Although my major is aerospace engineering, art has been my passion since an early age. I have always been drawn to realism, and challenging myself to give life to a canvas - I love seeing subjects come alive through the paint. This large oil painting of Sade Adu was done in my free time, to take my mind off the hardships of my STEM classes. Sade's mix of soft and hard features made for a challenge, but a beautiful outcome. I chose her as my subject due to her beauty, elegance, and influence on contemporary music. As a Nigerian musician, she opened the doors for those who followed her and is an icon in the voices of black history.
