Welcome to Fenix Inkorporated!!!

Hello y'all. I'm baaack. I took some time off the blog scene (& a whole lot of other scenes) to refocus. I'm so excited about reopening my blog formerly known as The Fantom Diaries, and now as Fenix Inkorporated. And what better way to reopen than to write an introductory post (which i shoulda written when i first started blogging anyways). Oh well, here goes...

My love for art began with a kindergarten assignment my father taught me to do. From then on arts and crafts were my favourite subjects. Growing up in a very large family, i easily escaped into my own imaginative worlds of superheroes which helped to increase my curiousity into comics and how they were made. My sis gave me my first set of professional color pencils before the age of 11, and needless to say, i fell head over heels in love with them and began churning out my wacky versions of the cartoon shows i watched. In a short while the creativity flowed into my dress sense, which got me 'revamping' my clothes when i got bored with them.

Basically with comics and cartoons for inspiration, my style has always been an escape from reality and a way to express myself, and over the years i have worked on my gift & harnessed it into a profession. Trust me, the art you see now wasn't always good looking and started out as stick figures, besides i wont even have believed i could get value from rendering my hobby as a service. The thing with art is you get better one stroke at a time. So for your viewing pleasure as a tribute to my roots here are my favorite characters from one of my favourite comics, the X-men.


 
Having worked with the likes of Hse of Nwocha, Kene Rapu, Meena, Orange Culture, and Yemi Alade among others, the blog is an outlet to share my color pencil illustrations with the world, and i know its the beginning of an incredible journey…

Style is an adventure so let the journey begin.

Stay haute.
Obinna.
