Kanayo Ede’s European hillsides and sun-dappled glens offer solitude, sheltering sanctuary and tranquility. Born and educated in Nigeria, Ede was introduced to the magic of color through the African textiles his father sold and is now inspired by nature’s forms and colors. Initially working in his native country as an art instructor and graphic artist, he left to paint full time in the United States. Ede now lives in Atlanta where he regularly exhibits his works as well as in New York, High Point, Chicago and Montreal.
