Muni King-Keazor





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.

Art Publication - Innovative Strategies for Selling Arts and Crafts- Artmiabo

  Innovative Strategies for Selling Arts and Crafts                      SELL YOUR ART THROUGH BLOGGING ABOUT YOUR ARTWORKS.... 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. The life of the artist is simple yet complicated with ideas on how everything from food, clothing, lifestyle, music, how kids are raised, environment and social issues should be interpreted.  Most artists express these views through various forms of visual and fine art and it is left for interpretation by the viewer or people in general who view this art and are sometimes confused about the Artists true genuine intentions and reasoning.  Most artist if not all have experienced this confusion from the audience, gallery owners, collectors, sponsors, and family.  My experience with most galleries, I ...

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...

Why Most Talented Artists Stay Broke (And How Strategic Art Marketing Fixes It) by Miabo Enyadike

  Why Most Talented Artists Stay Broke (And How Strategic Art Marketing Fixes It) Chromatic Whispers, Abstract Painting by Miabo Enyadike. Available for Purchase at Saatchiart.com Talent has never been the main problem in the art world. The industry is saturated with skilled, intelligent, and culturally relevant artists. Yet most remain financially unstable, underpaid, or dependent on sporadic opportunities. This is not a coincidence. It is structural. The uncomfortable truth is this: talent does not create income. Markets do. Artists are taught to believe that quality work automatically attracts collectors, galleries, and opportunities. This belief is not just wrong, it is economically damaging. It keeps artists passive in a system that rewards visibility, positioning, and trust far more than raw ability. The art world does not run on fairness. It runs on signals. The Lie Artists Are Taught Early From art school to open calls, artists are trained to focus almost excl...
