INSTAGRAM TAKEOVER

I shared 10 images of my existing work on the shaunproject Instagram page. this was a great opportunity to make my work know publicly. as a result of this, I received questions about my work on my art Instagram and met other fellow artists.

the note that I wrote to introduce myself and my work

'' Hi my name is Theresa Abibu

here I present some of my work

my work is a result of things within my surroundings that inspires me such as my family, friends and finding my own identity,

I work with paints (oil and Acrylic ) and oil pastel because through this I am able to create artworks without the need to think about it too much (intuitively).

My process: I usually start with painting the background colour (bright, matt) first (influence by figurative painters like Joy labinjo and Jordan Casteel) into a surface.

I enjoy working through this process because it's fun to see how y work builds up or transforms over time. ''
