Artist

After graduating from Government Technical College in Enugu, Dr. Charles Chuma Opara, an African American professional artist, began his artistic career right away. His fascination with the human body is a result of the pleasures, difficulties, and social and political quandaries of living and working in the United States of America, as shown in his paintings, sketches, and collages. His work exudes a strong intensity of expressive lines and vibrant, raw colors that give it a presence that captivates the observer. Dr. Charles' use of vivid colors and skillful human figure composition are reminiscent of Fauvism. One of the most active contemporary artists in the US is Dr. Charles Opara.
Dr. Charles uses a lighting technique that darkens the depths and draws attention to the curves in his paintings, finishing them with lovely highlights that add depth. Ultimately, we are frequently left to witness majesty and individuality in their most unadulterated state. Through his vivid portrayals of humans, Dr. Charles aims to evoke a feeling, passion, or experience, which makes his portraits deep. He is among the most well-known contemporary artists in the US.
