Abiola Idowu was born in Nigeria in 1973. He received formal art training in UNILagos and ABUZaira, Nigeria and completed a residency in Nairobi, Kenya. He is known as a prolific and creative painter that draws on spiritual faith and the love of simple everyday beauty. He creates dramatic pieces that are influenced by West African folk art, but maintains a modern signature style. After only a few years of showcase across Africa, his work began to gain international acclaim.
