Emmanuel Morgan

Nigerian artist Emmanuel Morgan approached me about displaying some of his paintings on my website in mid-November, 2002. In our long-distance dialogue we became friends and we now communicate regularly. He sent me the four paintings below and I was pleasantly surprised by their imaginativeness and creativity. They are similar to the type of paintings found in East Africa, but with bold, confident, and colorful strokes of the brush.

Morgan Emmanuel holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine/Applied Arts of the University of Benin, Nigeria specializing in Fine Arts. Currently, he is a practicing studio artist based in Nigeria. Many of his paintings can be found in notable art galleries in Europe and far Asia. He prefers and enjoys the landscape impression impasto approach together with traditional African Masks and designs.
