The artist, Kelvin Okafor

If I got a few buckets of oil paint, dipped a brush in them and one after the other sprayed them across a blank canvas such that it made a big mess, I could take that "work" to an art gallery in New York and it would be oohed and aahed over, as the work of an eccentric, deep thinking artist who's in touch with his emotions. :p :-)
I still believe in good old sketches! Away with modern art,I say.

Meet Kelvin Okafor, an artist.
He draws with pencils and a little bit of charcoal. His works are so life-like and real that if one does not pay close attention, they could be taken for photographs. I stumbled onto his blog and was just speechless at how detail-oriented they were (he captures the tiniest detail). I went from post to post and portrait to portrait in awe. I cannot help but feel that this is one man we will hear great things about. His talent is amazing!!!

He lives in London, and in his own words today on his blog: kelvinokaforart.blogspot.com, AWESOME NEWS!!!! I WON THE CORK STREET OPEN EXHIBITION'S RUNNER UP BEST OF SHOW AWARD & CASH PRIZE!!!!!! Completely and utterly honoured! :)
