Greatness is a massive thing that many desires
As countless people with good intentions gets wiery while waiting for this manifestation through desires....
The great pasiĂłn is always evident in every story
But only very few get to taste the full essence of the glory....

In figuring out the answers to these:
I realized something striking of what i call the fees...

'Proper Positioning':

Positioning is the crucial truth of this piece
Revealing this part of 'Ireti' (expectation) series...

It's not enough to desire a true love...
Or the best of relationship amongst other stuff...
How positioned you are to receive
Is a great déterminer beyond what you give...

Either you are properly positioned
Or the right environment is not envisioned
You will only attract what you place around you
So let your mind and environment reflect what's best for you....

The Ireti (Expectation) series of work addresses the different stages of human as regards love relationship, symbolically using the female figure; from the state of realization, innocence, exploration, waiting, dealing with external pressure, making choices, positioning and the settled state.
Using different flowers and poses as a symbolism of the transcending state of human with no stage/phase permanent: it all passes with time.

Being a woman sprought up from the seed embeded in that girl...

Yes she started out as a girl
With lot of things to tell...
Many times she fell...
Womanhood brought her out of the shell...

Responsibility became a reminder bell...
Becoming bold brings the lady Barton...
Adulthood reveals the beauty of the season...
As every one notices her eighth figure cell...

A value to be preserved beyond buy and sell
Is found in the virtue of her esteemed crown
Knitting brings about more crown
And creates a safe haven that many seeds dwell...

She's a total package created to preserve nations...
To cultivate countless seeds...
And full of wisdom to meet men's crucial needs...
She's indeed a gift and Favour to many generations...

Happy international women's day...
Locating and harnessing your inherent potential is all i pray...
Girl, Sister Woman, Mother, fiance, grandmother and a lady...
So much more is embedded in your beauty...

Harness it!!!
As you behold the giver of the gift ...

I was having a conversation with a friend yesterday
As we. Talked about the multifaceted aspect of every créative...
We are blessed with so much potential
That we get confused sometimes on which one to push more to the visual scene...

By God's Grace, I am opportune to explore with many media
As i don't even get to push to the end some emerging idea...
Not because of fear:
But the piling up of many other idea to share...
In as much as being boxed doesn't go well with creativity;
It doesn't negate the mastery that comes from a focused ability...

So what do I do?
I allow access to every of my creative inclination
And focus on a particular operation...
As others stays on the queue...

They sll find expression in the background...

Here's a charcoal exploration done on 2015 on canvas...
I will be bringing flash-backs of some other medium of expression to us...

Enjoy the view as you have a glorious weekend.

Daisies are most often used to symbolize purity, innocence, beauty, love, and fertility, along with motherhood, childbirth, and new beginnings.

One of the greatest discovery is the reality that the purity of heart can be maintained and sustained.

Note this:

Many dived into the ocean of love in genuine innocence
Ready to give it what it takes without holding back the natural ambience...
Then something happens from the other end
That makes the whole emotional state bend;

This usually herald caution based on the previous notion,

But understanding the purity of love brings healing to the heart
As you only get to learn who deserves your trust,
And not necessarily adulterating it with hurts.

Hold firm the beauty of the heart:
As you guard the tender state to whomever is worthy of the trust.
Please note that you’ll always get burnt
If you don’t understand the sacredness of pure love on your part,
Because the purity is always preserved
When properly expressed to the well deserved;

Even though your purpose of giving isn’t to initially receive,
A proper reciprocation is the source of its maintenance and sustenance.
Guard your pearl and don’t be deceived
Because the swine around us encourages the pig deed.
Protect your Innocence

Previewing the second part of the 'Ireti' Series
As we explore the state of innocence....
The purity of heart
Is a driven cart
Of the virtue of innocence,
Before the infiltration of different sense:
Some are lessons pick from environmental appearance
While the other one is a burnt from personal experience.

Before the many experiences and lessons...
Reveals a point where love made many do stupid things:
Some only harbored the acts upon the hearts
While others were opportune to reveal the real acts.

How did you respond to that initial innocence:
When the initial crush thought Harbour your sense...?

One of greatest mastery important to note:
Is Dealing with external pressure.
Many are in many mystery doing the blame games because the lack insight into this crucial part.

Don't be pushed into what you've not bargained
Nor pressured towards what you cannot sustain...

I'm in Love is not a game
But an intentional walk into responsibility plane.
If you ignore your capability to enter the environmental fame
You will only be tying yourself in emotional chain.

Can you afford price?
Be wise... 😍😍😍

Awareness and a proper understanding of the different phases helps individual respond properly and even skip some unnecessary phase towards a proper bearing as he or she reaches the settled state.

The Journey begins here with the awareness and many mixed feeling...

Here's is the state of realization...

Opening up the state of realization that birth the consciousness of a the vacuum of intimacy...
Understanding the tendency of each state at this stage is a treasure that will shield or expose anyone into becoming a Victor or a victim of the state...

What if that One thing you're afraid of is the One thing you need, to get Your Big Breakthrough and Go to The Next Level?
Jeanette Coron
It's deeper than the view
As I burst out with this after the several happening around...
Seeing that 2023 is crippling most people's proper view
In may part of the world...
The real change is beyond that very phase
But a daily courageous step of change in all our ways...
I hope we all see the big picture of what's Next beyond 2023
Until then we might not fully harvest the best from the national tree...

What next?

À crucial question to consider...

In my part of the world, the answer of many is only looking forward to next year....

But note that nothing will change if there's no personal gradual step that will effect the expected change...

The capturing of this work Coincidentally found a background noise
Here's another reaction toward my environmental happening in 2020/2021 archived on my canvas.

Have you sincerely considered the question?

Tittled 'What next?' Beyond 2023.
Yop:2021
Background sound: A live scene of a little girl(Grace) crying and a Mother figure shouting at her to stop disturbing with her shout...
It ended up that they were both the cause of the noise that should have distorted this video shot...

I chose to make it an art that helps communicate my story better...

What if the mother figure had cared enough to understand the cause of the child's outcry?

What if the child had picked up herself and take responsibility at that early stage?

The child looking forward to the mothers help
The mother figure knew that the child is able to pick up herself within a help...
But they both responded with shouting instead of responding to each other's need...

Lesson: Beyond the shout for PVC or 2023... Be responsible for yourself beyond any seeming Aid.

As the matter take come
The matter don dey go
Wetin happen?

When the national door close...
My people made the individual one open...

To avoid the continual effect of the two elephants fighting
VPN was a shield to evade suffering of the grasses.
Here's a canvas documentation
And my own reaction to the whole matter
Tittled 'Twitter Palava' 2021.

17/01/2022

It all started out like a little matter
Until it escalated into a big palava
At first, it was a restricted access to Twitter
Before a complete closure by national order...

The justified reason of the whole action is still a wonder...
An action geared to personal dignity
At the expense of the enterprise of the majority...

I watched the whole situation with great pity
As my canvas documented the state or things in my city....
Now that the platform is officially open...
I being you a preview of the scenerio's documentation....

Luku 1:45 YCB.

This piece is pointing to us the joy and glad tidings that comes with the birthing of every child which I term ‘IBUKUN’ even in the midst of celebration of the great joy and good tidings that came with birthing of Christ over 2000 years ago; there’s no doubt about the embedded mysteries.

Considering the manger birth

As God came to the earth
.
This alone is a mysterious light

Not to now talk about the Virgin birth
.
Everything can only make sense in the realm of faith

And in there is the access to the Blessing’s gate.

Blessed is anyone that believe
For unto them is the guarantee of a performance

Every Adult today passed through this mysterious state that was strengthened by the level of faith that their driver (parents and guardian) had about them while we were yet formed.
Likewise many couldn't gaze the earthly light because their formation got aborted by their driver's inactive faith before their formation.

Luke 1:45 And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.

20/12/2021

As the season keep unraveling
We bring to you 'IBUKUN' (Blessing)...

There's more to the birthing of every child
As the whole earth is always blessed with an additional beauty...
Mine and yours was an intentional working of our maker
To be a blessing to all creation and creature...
But all these is tied to how the blessings are nurtured...
