Savor the unbelievably ornate details of this Afro-futuristic digital painting by Adeyemi Adegbesan and you’ll understand why he channels his creative energy into two different pursuits. ⁣ ⁣ The Toronto-based artist of Nigerian ancestry shares all of African diaspora-themed digital imagery (such as *this* astounding work of art) on @yung.yemi, and all of his photographic art on @soteeoh. ⁣ ⁣ If you are a hopelessly devoted art junkie, you really owe it to yourself to explore his marvelously distinctive artistic style. ⁣ …⁣ posted on Instagram - https://instagr.am/p/CICEPHJITe4/

WHAT OBSTACLES HAVE YOU ENCOUNTERED AS AN ARTIST, AND HOW DID YOU OVERCOME THEM?⁣ "I think the main thing for me is just the reception of fine art that features black people. I think it’s starting to change, and there are obviously a lot of very high profile artists that make work centered on black people and black culture, but still I think the fine art market isn't fully receptive to this kind of work. Overcoming this has been a combination of trying to reach audiences outside my own country (Canada) and having work that is accessible online as well as commercial collaborations. My aesthetic and my visibility online have allowed me to get some great commercial projects with high profile brands, which supplement my income and add to the visibility and acceptance of my work."
