This week, our searching eyes fell on this dazzling work of art - a realistic oil painting by a graduate of the Yaba College of Technology, Lagos, Nigeria.
Olumide's work, shared on his Instagram page @Oluhyperclassical is available to his 32 000 followers.
The artist loves water because, as he told CNN, "Water has no enemy" - that re-echoes one of Fela Kuti's songs "Water e no get enemy".
Olumide paints anything of interest - from playing children to adults and from teenage girls to sleeping adults. There was even one with fish on a plate and another with young adult females standing besides a river.
But what is striking is that if you do not look closely, you would mistake the works for actual photos.
