Profile

Muni’s King-Keazor’s foray into photography started over 60 years ago when she acted as darkroom assistant to her father, Lawal King, a keen and gifted amateur photographer. 

Otherwise, she devoted several years to her vocation as a journalist - first as a pioneer member of staff at the Sunday Punch in 1973, before jointly setting up a title with her sister, and raising a family, amongst other pursuits.

Rekindling her deep love for photography, she began six years ago to build up a portfolio of vivid, striking images captured in the course of her travels around Nigeria and other parts of the world.

 Her focus is on highlighting the beauty in unposed everyday sights, bringing the attention of her audience to what they ordinarily may ‘see but not see’ in the hustle and bustle of daily life, thereby ‘remaking the world’ as she sees it.

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...

  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.
