Drawing with pen is another form of art I indulge in once a while. It is truly relaxing, but a little tricky.

The good thing though, is this is for someone like me, who is hands on , restless and free spirited. A little bit of something dainty to work on, keeps me grounded and I love that.


When I found this book in a flea market, it had all these wonderful gorgeous flowers in it, I knew I had to have it.

The thought of drawing them in black and white was appealing to me, then came interpreting my thoughts about each flower on paper.
I used a black ink pen and that to me was daunting especially after several mistakes.

Finally, I cracked the code 'PATIENCE AND RESPECT' for the plant!.

This meant I had to read about each flower,I had selected to draw, let's be clear I hate biology.

 Then I had to see them in real life, which meant going from one flower store, to another.
                                                       
 I knew I was, wearing down the sales people with questions, and not buying flowers from the store after all that questioning, was really annoying to the sales person.

It did not  matter. I was on a quest, and  a few angry looks was not going to put me off.I was going to draw these flowers ,they were important to me and I love a challenge.

I eventually got all the information I needed, sat down, night after night and drew these flowers, just the way I saw them in my mind.

  My interest in flowers stems from my love for natures colors and beauty. 

 flowers are part of nature and so they form part of our natural habitat and the presence of flowers and the subtle message, it brings with its calm beauty cannot be overemphasized...... Enjoy.

Contemporary Abstract Expressionism Art to View By Miabo Enyadike

Contemporary Abstract Expressionism Art - Colors and Lines                    Imagine life without color, I have tried too, but I have found it so impossible to envisage. The simple reason, is every where we turn there are colors, tones, hues and lines in such harmony. The inspiration behind these abstract faces series is harmonising colors and lines in an expressionist style.                                  This abstract collection is colors and lines, in which I decided to explore the use of  colors, creating tones and shades, using blurry and sharp lines created with ink to emphasis a synergy between  the two.                                                            ...

Modern Abstract Art Silhouettes to view | Miabo Enyadike

  Modern Abstract Art Silhouettes to view   I enjoy painting abstract art silhouettes especially faces.The simple reason is I can manipulate the profile of an individual, with several layers of color. Color for me is an integral part of my art aesthetics I allow color to lead my creative process in the way I see the art I am about to create.            Silhouette of a woman; Abstract Art; by miabo enyadike. My Abstract Art this week is all about using colors to create a simple silhouette, of a woman and a man. When I decided to create this particular abstract painting, it was more of emphasis on color than on the human profile. I wanted to see what the outcome of the creative process would look like.  Also to see if and when the human features are covered in colors, other than our natural colors would this Art evoke any emotions?... that simply belies the fact, that color seems to be one the many problems we have in our so...

  Abstract Art Faces Ideas to View Now Indigo Blue color is a color tone, I have come to know and love. This color was huge in the late seventies, in my home country of Nigeria.

Expressionist Abstract Art of Women by Miabo Enyadike

Expressionist Abstract Art of Women  Drawing women and their expressions is something, I am truly interested in. Female profiles and faces in abstract is intriguing and Ink drawings, are a way for me to throw that notion out there, of a female portrait created differently.  This is something that is important to me as a woman artist, this matters.                                                                                                                 I draw faces in a way that is uncomplicated  and easy to read, in a rather caricature way though not comical, with ink, it is easy to let the colors flow so that they create for me, the facial contours and structure.  My emphasis...

My Art Weekend Project with Clipboards by Miabo Enyadike

                     Abstract art on clipboards                                       My weekend, was one I spent lazing around in my pjs, eating  flatbread and hummus.  Sounds crazy or weird but for me, it was fun and a bit out of the norm.  The weird part, was not the choice of food or being in my PJ's all day, but the brief I got from a client who commissioned me to create abstract Art on clipboards for him 10 days ago.                                 Well, I have done decoupage on clipboards but actual painting no.  Not only was I not so sure, his brief was equally abstract to say the least, "just paint me anything abstract on these clipboards he said".             ...
