I met Brother Solomon back then in school, he was our Students’ Parish Campus Coordinator ...
This good-looking, easy going dude not only acts gentle, his looks speak it.
Very quiet and reserved but his works speak volume …
Solomon Omolayo Omogboye is a prolific painter. His works are a reflection of his thoughts, inspiration and ideas.
His choice of painting using mainly charcoal, pastel, acrylic and oil on canvas helps transform them into a fantastic variety of visual forms to communicate beauty, life as well as draw specific attention to issues.
Encouraged by his mother, a teacher and, introduced to drawing early as a child; he has worked extensively as an art instructor in secondary schools in Lagos, Nigeria after graduation.
Spanning a period of about a decade now, Solomon Omogboye’s works have attracted local and international attention.
He is one of the disciples of Superstroke Art Movement, Living Artists Emporium (LAE); Johannesburg.
Born in 1982 in Lagos, Nigeria, where he had his early education, Solomon proceeded to Lagos State Polytechnic graduating with a Higher National Diploma (HND) in Arts and Industrial Design (Painting) in 2007.
Presently, the August 19-born painter lives in Jozi, South Africa.
