Aniekan Udofia has become an artist in demand. The D.C. Commission on the Arts and Humanities has asked him to create large paintings on the walls of buildings. One of his earliest murals was for a community park. The images are about unity and peace using animals and people of all colors.
Udofia’s work has developed throughout his years in Washington. He says one of his favorite paintings is one of his earliest pieces. It is a painting of a child in a village leaning on a large radio. He says it shows how music travels so far and sometimes changes society. The painting expresses the power of music as well as art.

Aniekan Udofia has been invited to paint at many gatherings and community events. He creates a painting during the event so people can watch how the painting changes. One event was to raise money for the victims of the earthquake in Haiti. His painting was sold to the person who offered to pay the most money for it.
