I paint like water—fluid yet certain, shaping

and being shaped. My art moves between the

seen and the felt, where a frangipani’s curve,

the hush of a donkey in Lamu, and the glow of

skin all whisper the same truth.

I explore different mediums in my artistic

process but mostly work with oils and

acrylics. With palette knives, I carve bold

strokes, letting color and contrast speak—

earth and fire, softness and defiance. My

work is both rooted and untamed, in carrying

the rhythm of African storytelling, the weight

of memory, the quiet power of presence.

Each piece is an offering—to feel, to

remember, to see beyond the surface.
