Early post/ stocks $ hues

The recession that is affecting all corners of the globe made me remember one of my early paintings.As an alternative- stocks can be traded like an auction house.
I found the NYSE photo in some old magazine that was thrown in a dump around town.

Tribute to MJ

Dancing shoes

Guys received the news with disbelief and shock.In short,Mj inspired everyone in the world.I've been hearing his songs from nursery school to the present days.
People got impressed by his fine dance moves and passionate singing.As an artist and a fan I had to react to the sad news.
Maybe his demise will unleash a new art movement like Obamaism.It might be MJism or the popular Wacko Jacko.Who knows? ^^^

My Drawings 6

The little shops found in the countryside are designed in such a way that everyone sees whats happening around.No jostling or littering.
Some of them were built during the colonial era and are still intact.

Monday morning

Blue street,Acrylics on paper,16cm x 10cm.

Everyone hates waking up early in the morning especially on Mondays.The day is usually characterized by chilly and dull emotions.There are few people and less sunshine.
Maybe a monochrome might explore this phenomenon.

Overhead mural

The above mural was done by my neighbourhood artist friend called Robert.I wanted to take his photograph but he declined.
Many street artists are camera shy I don't know why.Apart from this,he has also painted barber shops and does a bit of illustration.
He's also a good painter but the realist type.The mural is located around my home town.

Rare gift

Barack ni Baraka,Coloured pencil and pen on paper,20cm x 10cm.

Everyone in Africa and particularly Kenya loves Mr.President.Many artists of all levels have either done a piece or staged something concerning the US president.
Some have done graffitis, others have stuck his photos on vehicle bodies and others like me have done art pieces in the form of paintings,collages and animations.
The title of this artwork when translated to English reads Barack is a Blessing.It's based on a passport photo I had seen in the newspapers when he was campaigning with McCain.

@ the streets-Tour 5

I believe that a street is not complete without telephone and electric cables hanging around.Street lights are also a necessity.
