Droplets Elephant. 6ftx6ft. Wall Art. Completed May 2018
This is by far the simplest painting I’ve done. The entire project took less than 5 hours.
The idea was fresh on my mind and my passion for elephants was depicted well in this painting. Would you imagine the frame was created by spraying black paint over blue painting tape.
A song that comes to mind when I look at this painting is Burna Boy’s, Anybody. It’s a great song, especially when Burna hits that chorus,
“Anybody, wey no want to soji
Anybody, wey no dey carry body
Nack am something, ah ah
Nack am something
To ba ta fele, fele
Nack am something
”
The song is as African as this Elephant, but is listened to globally as the African Elephant is respected and celebrated globally. It’s a beauty and makes me proud to have the painting in my garage.
