About the Item
The painting depicts a young boy with a purple cloth wrapped around his face. The background of the painting is also a deep shade of purple, adding to the overall mood and tone of the piece. The boy's face is partially obscured by the cloth, giving the impression of mystery or secrecy. The use of oil on canvas adds a sense of richness and depth to the artwork, enhancing the sense of drama and tension. Overall, the painting appears to be a thought-provoking and emotive piece that invites the viewer to interpret its meaning and significance.

About Artist
Bakare Babatunde Oluwadamilare was born in Ogun State, Nigeria. He completed his high school education in Lagos State and later pursued his tertiary education in Kwara State, where he obtained a Higher National Diploma in Library and Information Science.
From a young age, he had a passion for art and was a self-taught artist. Over the years, he experimented with various mediums, but his favorite mediums are oil and acrylic on canvas and African wax prints in Ankara. His subject matter focuses on figure and portraiture, which aims to portray human emotions, experiences, and challenges. His paintings offer a unique perspective, interpreting his thoughts on canvas and African wax prints in Ankara.
Recently, he started working on a series of paintings on Ankara fabrics as support. He was fascinated by the vibrant colors and patterns of the Ankara fabric, which inspired this discovery. He has participated in various art competitions and exhibitions, including the iCreate skill festival in 2017 and the ijakadi festival as an exhibitor. His works have been sold both in Nigeria and abroad, and he continues to create thought-provoking pieces that captivate and inspire his viewers.
