This painting depicts an affectionate relationship between a woman–wearing a tank top and a polka-dotted skirt–and the black cat she is holding. The subject holds the pet dearly with both hands and shows great care. Mi Amor is a Spanish expression meaning “my love.”

Consisting of both acrylic and oil paints, Daniel Adenitan’s work draws influence from his environment, historic events and the lifestyle of Africans in general. The artist’s compositions explore the lifestyle and fashion of Africans in the 1970s by featuring figures with afro hairstyles and clothing that captures the common style of that era. The illustrated figures are a combination of friends and strangers, as well as people invented from the artist's imagination. Adenitan's narratives bring a spotlight to the vibrance, excitement and mood that was shared in the 70s, reminding viewers of its cultural and ethnic significance. While creating these works, the artist is surrounded by music and a surplus of natural light.
