Zinno, whose unique and inspiring talent has not been eclipsed by the sadness following his wife’s ailment, gives brief insights to some of the paintings:
“Life is a journey, the painting Homeward Revisited is not just about the woman paddling her canoe home; it’s about life’s journey in its entirety. We will all go home someday and most times, we don’t know how it will all end.”
For the captivating painting, Love Isn’t Blue, Zino said:
“This is my story, love isn’t blue, love is red, depends on how much sacrifice you are willing to make.”

Ayeni concludes: ‘This exhibition is more than just an art showcase, it is in honor of Adaora Zinno Orara – the most beautiful woman in the world – and every other person out there who is fighting the up-hill battle against cancer, against all odds.”
