About

I am luhya from the western part of kenya, I am a humble and simple person, I have been drawing for as long as i can renember, if i would have kept all of my past drawings they would have piled up almost to the height of a two storey building, i used to draw cars on my school books and every plain paper i could find, i have never/dont smoke or drink alchohol, I am an indoor person i dont go out much, i have never been to any social gathering or an entertainment club, i only enjoy myself when i am listening to music while sketching/drawing, i draw anytime/everytime..... I myself belive that if you love all people and love doing what you do, then thats enough, i can never ask for anything else in this life.
Education

  St michaels primary/grade school: 1993 to 2001.
  
  1993 - 2001
  
  In 2006 my parents could afford for me to continue school so i had to come out of school to look for working, but i am not complaining or feeling sorry for myself, because that is life.... plus besides having passion for transportation concept design, i also knew/know how to draw so then as a freelance artist we did little projects like wall illustrations for nursery and primary schools here in kenya, we also did painting illustrations and submited them to book publishers for a chance for us to be employed there as book illustrators, me together with my friend Collins Misigo from 2006 to 2008.
