Can't stop,won't stop!

I uploaded this real life photos of matatus so that readers from other regions can get a glimpse of what this blog is about.

Despite the frequent crackdowns by the authorities,this art form has persevered on and has continued to blossom.

This unique culture labelled "matatu culture" is a rare fusion of Kenyan urban culture and Americas' hip-hop culture.

It first of all started with rap music being played on the radio and gradually taking root firmly among the youth.

My only wish is for the government to embrace this artists and start recognising them.It can organise workshops with reputable car manufacturing companies-so as to help the artists perfect their skills.

Who knows? Maybe one day some will emerge and be like Funk Master Flex or Xzibit(Pimp my Ride).

The actual drawings

Last time I posted my article I forgot to post the actual work.I just typed and left.But due to public demand Ive managed to put up some evidence.Hope my fans like them.

My Drawings

When I started out I had a hard time,first I had to come up with a way of sketching my subjects.Since I paint from observation-I decided to buy an artist pad which was more portable.
When I see anything interesting,I come up within seconds with a sketch of what the actual painting would look like.
On the canvas, I add some details to improve the aesthetics.Although some of my paintings come from published material;I try to add a bit of originality to it.
My dream is to one day hold an exhibition in New York or Moscow.
