Dan, Uduak-obong Tony by name, socially known as Diyen Dan is a University Of Uyo final year student from the prestigeous department of fine and industrial art, Faculty of Environmental studies; University of Uyo.

Diyen as popularly called is a gentle but smart young artist who is really creative in terms of drawings and
paintings which is actually his area of specialisation in the fine and industrial art department.
As a results of his hard work in the university,he was nominated for the honour of the best student fine artist in the school of which he deservingly won without much contest.
He is gracefully working on his projects as he just finished his final exams some weeks ago,and as a culture in the school; all final year students are normally baptized (as in when celebrating birthdays) with a lot of water in their final day of exams and seriously,you need to see how he was celebrated by lots of friends and believe me,he was really soaked with water!
He is so good in drawing and even more amazing in paintings! He spends most of his hours in the department's studio drawing and painting.
Most of his recent painting/drawings are actually in stock for department’s exhibition scheduled to hold anytime soon
Some of the his current lovely landscape paintings are extremely amazing
