| Your Personal Biography |
Gbolahan Ayoola is an abstract expressionist. My works are greatly inspired by the dual nature of man. I like to create works that makes the viewer wonder and ask questions that cannot be ignored. I believe that man has fears which need to be conquered before he can truly live. My art is a great definition of modern African Art.
