Vincent Osemwegie was born in 1977 in Nigeria but currently lives and works in South Africa since 2009.Creative from childhood, Vincent studied painting in art school. After failing in various attempts to succeed as an artist, the year 2013 marks a drastic turnaround in Vincent’s artistic career when he made a firm decision to take art full-time.

His technique turned from realistic to expressive and enjoying the freedom found in his recent technique, Vincent creates images with drippings of paints, with little or no brush contact to his work surface. The manner in which he moves his brush over his canvas results in the variation of his lines sizes, giving them distinct uniqueness. He believes art is spiritual and acknowledges God as his sole inspiration. His paintings are usually symbolic, and the use of stitches expresses his belief in “making right, to our best capabilities, the wrong things we come across in life, before considering the option of discarding them.”
His desire to work with media that are yet to be explored in the art has recently landed him to paint on Perspex, and this has impacted his artistic career positively.
