AMIAF 2023 Participating Artist Faith Michael | Artmiabo

 AMIAF 2023 Participating Artist

Faith Michael is a self-expressive contemporary artist whose painted delineations are highly enthralling for their undisguised photographic poise. Starting out as a fabric and masking tape artist, she is presently devoted to creating unsentimental depictions that are mostly in figurative silhouette and naked fashion brushed up with whispered yet conversational themes.


d_art_cidental_artist career started out of a divine orchestration that occurred during her course registration for the Joint Admissions Matriculation's Board (JAMB), where she mistakenly selected visual art. That accident will then become the beginning of the path to fulfilling destiny and purpose. After graduation from the Auchi Polytechnic School of Art and Industrial Design in the Department of Painting, she committed herself fully to visual art.
Her works are creative attempts to explicate the voices of her characters, who are largely female, on canvas. Her paintings offer strength to women who struggle with self-belief and evoke impassioned scenes from her perspective of life or wherever she exists at a particular time.
Mentored by master artists: Uzoma Samuel and currently Wallace Ejoh, Faith Michael has gained mastery over the illusion rendering technique of volume on a two-dimensional surface.


She has participated in various group exhibitions such as Sheroes National Art Competition organized by UNESCO Abuja (2020), Patches of Cloud organized by Afiong Ebekpo (2020),Embassy of Spain (2021), IVTH international online art exhibition by NIRANTAR (2021), Art at OUIDA (2022), Through my lens organized by The Content Gallery (2022), Sister’s art (2022).
Starting from Thursday 27th April to Monday 1st May 2023, Faith Michael, alongside 11 other AMIAFSLOT2023 artists will be exhibiting their "artofafrobeats" musings at the Ebonylife Place for the 2nd edition of the Artmiabo International Art Festival.

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...

  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 ...

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...

Waste Recycled - A Sustainable Art Living by Miabo Enyadike

The Art of Sustainable Living Sustainable living, Found Objects, Recycling,  Up-cycle, Eco Art, call it whatever has been my life style as an artist for many years.  My attitude toward the discarded found object is reflected in my home.  I collect used bottles, books, distressed wood, pine cones, used jeans, used clothing, used plastics and so many more to create art and design for homes, collectors and my store.  My home forms an integral part of my art process, because I work and live in the same space as the Art I sell. My early inspiration came from Jasper Johns early works where he used mostly found objects to create art.                          Cross Made out of Wood, Egg Shells and Egg Crates Then I moved on to be inspired by street art here in Africa through my travels across the continent.  I discovered really moving and inspiring art, created with found objects that we take for granted ...
