We didn’t know who Oresgun Olumide until about 10 hours ago when a painting by him made rounds on the internet. And honestly, we still do not know a lot.

What we do know, we learnt from his Facebook bio which describes him a professional artiste, who resides in Lagos, and graduated from Yaba College of Technology.
It’s not a lot, but judging from his works as displayed on FB, it is obvious that Oresegun Olumide deserves way more recognition than he’s currently getting.
These oil paintings from his ‘Glistening’ exhibition will show you why we’re so hung up on him.
The Artist Oresegun Olumide He is a genius with his art I love it.
His work is awesome. I’ve never seen anything like it.
Does he have an online store? I’d love to potentially purchase a piece from him.
