This vibrant portrait of a young boy in mid-scream doesn’t just catch your eye—it grips your emotions. The child’s open-mouthed expression bursts with raw intensity, channeling feelings of freedom, frustration, release, or unfiltered joy. It’s a piece that makes you feel something every time you look at it—an essential quality of powerful, lasting art.

Blending elements of graphic art and abstraction, this mixed-media work stands at the intersection of fine art and modern design. The use of textured black and grey tones alongside vibrant purples, blues, and oranges creates a stunning visual contrast. It’s a piece that works beautifully in modern interiors, galleries, or creative spaces looking for a striking focal point.

The pulsating red background, layered with subtle gradations and markings, gives the painting an almost electric energy. Combined with the heavily textured facial features and smooth planes, the artist creates a dynamic tension between chaos and clarity. These elements reveal technical skill and thoughtfulness that elevate the piece beyond decorative art.

his artwork makes a bold statement—perfect for collectors looking for a centerpiece that sparks conversation and conveys depth. It works equally well in a contemporary home, art-forward office, or creative space, and its emotionally charged subject makes it resonate with a wide range of viewers.

As an original mixed-media piece, this is a truly unique work of art. It reflects not only the artist’s skill but also their voice—capturing a moment of raw human emotion in a way that’s both personal and universal.

This is more than a painting—it’s a surge of feeling, a visual exclamation, a reminder of how powerful expression can be. A smart buy for those who value art that’s unafraid to be bold, real, and unforgettable.

 

 

 

About Artist

Solomon Omogboye is a gifted impressionist painter born in Lagos, Nigeria, in 1982. He studied art and industrial design at the Lagos State Polytechnic before starting work at the Lagos National Theatre. He won the AADS Best Artist of the Year award in 2007.

Omogboye worked as an art teacher for six years before moving to South Africa in 2014. "I've always been a prolific painter, encouraged by my mother, a teacher," he says. "My paintings reflect my thoughts, inspiration and ideas, using mainly charcoal, pastel, acrylic and oil on canvas.

Omogboye has exhibited his work in Lagos, Johannesburg, Franschhoek and in Théoule-sur-Mer, France. His bold, lively paintings, characterised by energetic, bold strokes and capturing playful expressions of human anatomy, have attracted local and international attention for many years, firmly settling him among Nigeria's leading artists.

"The beauty I see in every existence is my inspiration to paint," he says. "For me, painting is a practice of focusing intentions moment to moment – mirroring what life is really about."

This gifted and humble artist says he finds inspiration wherever he travels – and it's not always the obvious thing that catches his eye. "My paintings reflect what I continue to learn in life: that the only perfection is imperfection and the appreciation of what is."
