Connie Ehindero is an abstract landscape painter. Her art reflects immersion in the natural world, translating its lines and forms, seen and unseen, past and present, into paintings. Ehindero’s paintings move between natural space and the flat surface of abstraction, moving the viewer from the literal landscape into a primal connection to the natural world. She works in both encaustic and acrylics.
