Original Paintings

I create original acrylic and oil paintings on canvas.

One Of A Kind Canvas Artwork

Each original canvas is created as a singular artwork, with no prints or repeated versions of the same piece.

A More Personal Way to Collect Meaningful Art

I build each painting through layers of acrylic or oil, allowing color, texture, and composition to develop naturally on canvas. The finished work carries the visible evidence of a handmade process, from expressive brushwork to quieter details that reveal themselves over time. This makes every piece distinct in both appearance and feeling.

An original painting can bring character to a room while offering something more personal than mass-produced decor. I create work that can be lived with, revisited, and appreciated from different distances and in changing light. Whether selected for a private space or an established collection, each canvas offers a direct connection to my creative practice.

About

“When I write in my paintings, I’m not just writing. I’m painting, playing music, dancing,

there is a balance that I follow, I am developing my own language.” -Olympio

Olympio creates abstract and figurative compositions that reflect his internal rhythms,

resulting in bold, expressive paintings. Working intuitively, the artist defines his work as

the expression of his energy. Each piece is both everything and nothing; as simple as a

heartbeat, as complex as a hurricane. Born in Lomé, Togo, the self-taught West-African

artist spent time in Paris before moving to the United States. He currently lives and

works in Los Angeles, California.

Olympio is one of sixty people from across the world selected to be exhibited in “Out

of the Fire,” the 14th edition of the Dakar Biennale, one of Africa’s oldest and largest

exhibitions of contemporary art in Dakar, Senegal. In 2018, he was listed as one of

the top ten artists at Art Basel Miami. Interviews with the artist have been featured on

France 2, TV5MONDE, France 24, RFI, BBC, and major newspapers and magazines.

Work by Olympio has been exhibited around the world at museums including: the

Latino Art Museum in Pomona, CA; Chiba City Museum of Art in Chiba, Japan; and the

Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Art in Tokyo, Japan.
