Chinwe Chukwuogo-Roy's talent spans a wide and varied canvas. She captures the essence of her subjects with her life studies in oils and pastels and has earned international recognition. Although the subjects nearest her heart are portraits in oils, the artist also sculpts in clay.She was born in Eastern Nigeria and obtained her B.A. Hons. degree in Graphic Design in England, after which she moved to painting. Her portraits are based on the traditional method but with a dash of colour that reflects her origin and a 'joie de vivre' that gives them a life of their own.
Chinwe Chukwuogo-Roy's paintings have successfully captured the vibrancy and breadth of the African culture. Her cultural series has picked subjects from the different countries she had visited to produce a panorama of the many aspects of African Life. The Africa - Past, Present, Future series is a critical look at the continents rich history and civilisations bringing the art lover an insight into it's vibrant past.

Well, give me d courtesy of answering dat, it's simple, since all naija men here have turned into crooks and no-good men, what do u expect? I no blame d woman o. I've been in jand going to 10 yrs now, and up till now, i've not met a decent naija guy dat's dim fit a bf material. And no, i ain't choosy at all, i'm not into dat 'he must be taller than me, or 'be a doctor/accountant/lawyer, or 'must attend to my needs'.

I would suggest anyone appreciative of art to check the website. Although not all her styles are to my liking there really is some superb work particularly her more recent paintings and monotypes; there is no doubting her talent, it is world class - and I speak as an art critic with some 45 years experience.
ReplyDeleteMy paper reports that she has an exhibition in London this June, but I don't know where! I would appreciate advice if anyone knows.
