ÀDÚRÀ

by Emmanuel Ayo

ÀDÚRÀ, Emmanuel Ayo, oil and acrylic on canvas, 40x40 in, 2019 “ÀDÚRÀ” in my Nigerian language (Yoruba) is the term used for prayer. In such a time of uncertainty and possibly the beginning and end to come – as some presume, I couldn’t help but…

My name is Emmanuel Ayo. I specialise in oil portrait paintings. Originally from Nigeria, I currently live in Montreal and attend Concordia University in Fine Arts. My passion for drawing started while I was in Nigeria and continued after moving to Canada at the age of 13; my unique artistic expression then evolved into painting at 19 years old. I enjoy creating paintings to emotionally influence the viewer of my work.
