Celebrate Joy, Identity, and Color with This Radiant Portrait

Infuse your space with boundless energy and pure joy through this unforgettable portrait of a young Black girl—an artwork that radiates life, spirit, and cultural pride. With her chest turned slightly and her face beaming in a wide, unfiltered smile, she captures a moment of uncontainable happiness, reminding us all of the power of joy in its most authentic form.

Her glowing skin, painted in rich hues of brown, orange, and red, glows with warmth, while expressive lines and sculptural textures bring a raw, emotional dimension to her face. The abstract style blurs the line between realism and imagination, allowing every viewer to see something of themselves—or someone they love—reflected in her features.

Her beautifully styled cornrows, adorned with dashes of teal and green, speak to heritage and self-expression. A small earring glints with understated elegance, while the fiery red backdrop and bold brushstrokes envelop the portrait in motion and vitality. The painting hums with energy—patches of purple, ochre, teal, and grey give it rhythms, like the vibrant pulse of a city street or the laughter of a carefree afternoon.

This is not just a painting—it’s a celebration. Of uninhibited joy. Of the stories and colors that make us who we are.

Bring home a portrait that smiles back. Bring home hope, culture, and color.

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."
