Commissioned portrait of the Vice Chancellor of Bowen University and wife, (Prof. and Mrs. Matthews Ojo)
I feel very priviledged to have been awarded the contract to make this portrait of the outgoing vice chancellor of Bowen University, Iwo, Osun state. I have to say it is my biggest job so far. This piece was yet another race against time as the contract came in late. I'm glad I could finish it in time to make the sendforth ceremony for this couple where the portrait was presented. Prof. Matthews Ojo had administered the affairs of the university for five years,the first of which was my third year at the university.
I was at the program myself which had in attendance a lot of dignitaries of the Nigerian Baptist Convention, starting from the convention president, Rev. Olasupo Ayokunle Phd who is also the CAN (Christian Association of Nigeria) president, to several HODs and conference presidents from all around Nigeria. It was a glorious occassion.
As usual, let me walk you through the process with images.
