Pencils n Brushes Artworks (P’n’B Artworks) is a platform that provides visual art and design services. The artworks offered include portraits, paintings, illustrations, graphics/creative designs, handcrafted cards and live art. This Art and Design Start-up company based in Lagos is one of the Top 100 emerging SMEs in Nigeria. In September 2010 two brothers, Ayokanmi and Toluwani Binutu, partnered to form P ‘n’ B Artworks when they saw how visual arts was undervalued and relegated to the background in Nigeria. Rather than complain, they began an Art and Design Service Company to be a safe-haven for like-minded artists. The brand was launched in 2011 and the company registered with CAC in 2012. Since then, they’ve been holding exhibitions, teaching and employing talented artists.
