Be Still

Be still is an oil colour painting that described the delicate situation of women, pregnant women specifically during the 2020 pandemic. The artist passed a message of calmness with a figurative image of a pregnant woman with a subtle facial expression. The painting is not deprived of aesthetics even with sensitive message passed to the audience. The body is covered in African traditional motifs, the hairdo and ornaments describe the richness of the culture. With the covid symbol and a face mask in her hands, the message was rightly passed.

Medium: Oil on Canvas
