I am A Designer/Patterncutter who has previously worked in couture and tailoring and have taught patterncutting for as long as I have been in fashion. I am also an illustrator and fine artist and teach beginners.
I am a lecturer at the School of Art, Design & Architecture at Huddersfield and recently taught in a PT capacity at the BA(Hons) Illustration programme at Norwich University of the Arts.
My name is B. Oluwafemi, a Fine Artist, and a major promoter of African arts. I hail from Ijumu local government area of Kogi state Nigeria with a Degree in Fine Arts (specialty in Art History). I am currently running my Masters in Fine Arts at the UniversityFor The Creative Arts Farnham UK. I also run the Artmazing studios where we offer a wide range of services from murals, graffiti, illustrations, digital arts, body arts and art consultancy with the sole goal of promoting African Arts.
I grew up in Zaria, Kaduna where I got my Degree from Ahmadu Bello University. I began my career as a Makeup Artist after completing my National youth service assignment in Daura, Katsina state and subsequently decided to go into full time art practice. I have always been an experimental person and in my artistry, I decided to infuse Traditional African Art into urban arts to create an Afro-centric modern synergy. My works can attest to this. From completion of my NYSC till date I have worked on several commissioned art projects in Abuja. Some of these projects can be seen in popular locations I Abuja like Jabi Boat Club, Discovery Museum, Trukadero, The Nigerian Air Force, Barlance Abuja, Whiskey Mistress, Nigerian Naval Recreation Center, The Rochas Foundation but the highlight will have to be a graffiti job commissioned for the Queen’s Birthday.
I am also a renowned body artist, stretching the boundaries with lines and African motifs using the human skin as a canvas, to create beautiful and stunning patterns. I have been hosted in several exhibitions and fairs where I worked on body art models and enthusiasts.
I work from my studio space/office where you will mostly always find me sketching out designs on my iPad or painting on a canvas. As far as inspiration, I pick inspiration from any and everything, ranging from works of artists I revere to a simple conversation.
Art is my one sole primary focus and that is why I always seek to give it my all. Art is a voice to me, my form of expression, it speaks when I have no words. It is the easiest way I pass messages on lots of issues. I plan to contribute to my field by using art to tell my African story and discovering new and improved ways to better my country, continent and the world at large.
