Damilola is an artist from Nigeria. He had his primary and secondary education in Ogun state Nigeria. A graduate of the University of Lagos (UNILAG). with a B.A. Honour in Creative Art.
Growing up as an artist, he was hungry for a kind of dialogue that centred around intention, style, and feelings. When he eventually dived into painting, he was also simultaneously doing research and investigation for an answer to his dialogue. his ultimate goal is to create art that brings emotions to his viewers.
" I think, to understand human beings is like understanding the whole of humanity".
Damilola is very much interested in human feelings and their expressions. His paintings have become his best friends.
"I understand the changes happening to me year by year. For a long time I have been interested in the brush mark and how the brush mark describes the intensity of character and the idea of authenticity".
