Okunola Victor Oluwaseun, also known as 4d, is a Nigerian artist born on July 30th, 1995, in Ede, Osun State, Nigeria. 4d is the fourth of five siblings. He attended Baptist High School in Ede, Osun State, and by the age of 12 had already developed an interest in art and painting. His passion and love for art began in the early stages of his childhood. He shared that he would always feel cheerful and amused every time he found the opportunity to play with colors and other painting objects. His love for colors grew so much over time that it became the major intrinsic factor that inspired him to pursue a career and create professional goals in art.
Growing up, he faced several challenges and limitations stemming from his environment. Considering these constraints, he moved to Lagos State, Nigeria, at the age of 19. There, he identified his strengths and the opportunities available, which were essential to his growth. With consistent effort and a desire to improve his art skills, he has attended various masterclasses in art and participated in different exhibitions in Lagos. He is currently making plans to hold his personal exhibition.
4d is an artist who devotes significant commitment and consistency to advancing his skills, both conceptual and innovative. He specializes in a category of art called “impasto art.” Impasto is a painting technique where paint is applied to the surface in very thick layers, often thick enough that the brush or painting-knife strokes are visible. Most of his works are used to express human feelings, lifestyles, and nature.
