MY ARTIST DEFINITION/EXPERIENCE An Artist is one that is creatively free-spirited meaning one that creates a world around themselves that conforms to the life they portray through their works.

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 emp...

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...

Several Ways to Promote Your Art Online and Offline by Artmiabo

Several Ways to Promote Your Art  Art is truly in the eyes of the beholder, who love what they see immediately, but the purchasing of the Art is a different ball game.  People tend to make a decision to buy your art after several views that is the way it works.   For some fewer views and they buy, while others several views before a collector makes a purchase.             Abstract Flower Painting, Wall Art,  by Miabo Enyadike The reason for these disparities is sometimes, name recognition could prompt a quick purchase or good presentation of your Art could be a factor.  While on the other hand poor presentation, costing, need, and relevance could lead to delays.  The issues here are relative, there is no quick magic to sell your art, you just have to put it out there for people to see and decide for themselves.  I have been fortunate to be in the Art business for over 20 years, so I have a...
