USMAN and LUCKY... COMPANION series O3
Oil on canvas.... 25 x 25 inches.... 2025

Always a life trying moment for Usman whenever Hajia, his mom as fondly called by other kids in the neighborhood shaves his head with the local hair cutting blade his dad got him two Salah holidays ago. Usman's head after shaved can be seen sweating profusing during or after any task that requires his attention and energy. His father loves his head clean, his mom would also apply the locally made coconut oil on his head after his morning bathe making his head compete with the sun on extreme sunny days but the bullies in SS 2 class would never seize to stop taking turns to rub his head or even slap it for fun.
For this reason, Usman has no friend in class or in school because even his classmates would call him headmaster, edd-ward and so many unfriendly names.
Just last month, his uncle relocated to France and transferred ownership of Lucky to him as one of his parting gift. Lucky is a 2 years old German Shepherd Usman has known all its life, playful and loves Usman as well, always licking off Usman sweats from his head and that makes him unusually comfortable. Now Lucky would be with him for eternity, his only companion, his friend and his playmate. Usman and Lucky would remain a perfect duo for a long time, a perfect Companionship yet seen
