    ABOUT MICHAEL OGUGUO

    Michael came to us in February, 2022.  He lives in Ireland, but was born and raised in Nigeria.  A calm, shy demeanor comes with Michael, but also confidence and assurance in his artwork, which is how Michael expresses himself.

    Michael Oguguo is now 50 years old, married, and has six children. 

    He is a self-taught artist and specializes in making custom paintings from photos of people.  He does his best to bring the image to artistic life by honing in on the way the subject see themselves. 

    Of the reason to transfer the business of his Art to True African Art, Michael says: "The business of promoting, processing, and communicating with people who want their picture painted became too much for me in terms of my attention and time as an artist. It was taking away from my creativity.  With my friends from True African Art, I can now profit the same amount and not have to worry about the business aspects of my works and buyers. It frees me up alot to do what I am good at and to do it with enjoyment instead of anticipation.  I appreciate all the customers I have already had and you are in good hands with True African Art."
