“Today man is enslaved. Shackled by the pressure of survival and belonging in a materialistic society. Constant hustle and chaos precludes seeing My methods are set and simple. I paint the things I like, and I paint however I want to. Art for me is an expression of liberty. I will not submit to the dictates of any Art Oligarchy” (246) 425 2126 Oluyemi74@hotmail.com www.nevillelegall.com
