My Journey through Ink and Paint Christopher O Makoyawo

Presented in My Journey through Ink and Paint is the mind of a pensive wanderer who journeys through a world of colors. This work depicts abstract art in a stylish evolution of colors through contrasting, blending, or complementing one color with another juxtaposed on it. The color movement is like a flow chart of events created by nature during a rainbow formed by the sun and raindrops. This technique can be seen in The Wilderness Mind, Eleganza, and others in the book. My Journey through Ink and Paint is a compilation of abstract art drawn over the years through enjoyable and sad moments. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder," so it is said. Christopher, for simplicity's sake, described most of his abstract art in the book, and left some for others to describe according to how they view each image. Like in the well-known phrase "a picture is worth a thousand words," the viewers can always have varied opinions about a particular piece of art. The driving forces that influenced Christopher into a continuous habit of drawing abstract art can be found in the motivational notes within his book.
