Black Omi Art Co.
The use of various colorways in my paintings is intentional and plays a crucial role in conveying the depth of emotion and individuality within each piece. Colors are carefully chosen to evoke different moods, from vibrant and bold to soft and contemplative. This diverse palette reflects the myriad of emotions that women experience, emphasizing that there is no singular definition of beauty. By embracing a range of colors, I aim to break free from traditional norms and create a visual narrative that resonates with the complexities of femininity.
Invocation Of Oya
As I explored African goddesses, seeking one who matched the energy of my creation, it wasn’t until I read the description of Oya that I found her. Often depicted in red, with a copper crown, Oya is the goddess of weather, revered for her love and protection of her people. Her themes include justice, tradition, zeal, and femininity, while her symbols are fire, water, and the number 9.
