As an abstract artist, when I finished painting this colorful abstract art face painting, stared at it for a while and I immediately saw myself as an 'Eternal Optimist'.

My Abstract Inspiration is always Picasso driven:

 My abstract art paintings always draws from Picasso's thinking of being truthfully different and defying all odds, it just has to be the way I see and feel it.

And my interpretation of how I saw and felt the covid pandemic is the art you are viewing before you.

As an Artist, I think the pandemic and all the confusion around it made me feel bald somehow, our Fragile Humanity once again is falling apart and everything that we know and love is kind of being taken away from us without a calming remedy or a solution. 




My new abstract art painting 'Eternal Optimist' is reminiscent of an abstract art series and blog I did a while ago titled Fragile Humanity, I could see a semblance in these artworks, made in different times to address different situations the similarity in both is our shared humanity! and the fact that it is under threat.


Eternal Optimist: Abstract Face painting by Miabo Enyadike





Our lifestyle is falling away from us before our very own eyes, every day we wake up is just another huge loss of life and livelihood,  it just feels like a huge hair loss but even worse because we can't Wig it or Win this!. 

It's almost impossible to fathom how? when our humanity is so laid bare by a virus plucking at us making us bald in all areas and making us doubt what we believe and who we are. 

              



And then it occurred to me as I stared at my colorful Abstract art painting that our shared humanity is at stake but it is kept alive by our optimism about life, family and those we love and cherish, is what keeps us going.

Applauding our doctors and nurses as they fight this unseen enemy, keeping our social distancing, helping the elderly and innovating new ideas and ways to extinguish this virus, also praying that this baldness ravaging our Fragile humanity stops. 






Knowing in our shared humanity that we are all in this together, please stay safe and to all artists out their, the world needs are recorded art of these times as future historic references.

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...

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 emp...
