Artist Statement
The artworks I produce are basically on various media ranging from paintings, drawings, illustrations, mixed media, digital drawings, and others. I draw things I see every day like harmful human activities imposed on our environment, violence, and cultural drawings since I want people to see the things I do see and want them to know how things are where I live, I also want people to see the good times and bad times I see and I am also attracted to the preservation of my indigenous culture of Iteso.

Drawings
There is a lot that cultural studies can inform the current generation on issues ranging from the social, political, and religious setup that we can draw from it
For example, the akongo dance among the Iteso-speaking people is the courtship dance were the chiefs used to organise for their boys and girls to prepare them for the marriage ceremonies. When people see these kinds of drawings on cultural activities, they can relate to
and appreciate the past and therefore ensure the continued survival of this knowledge to the next generation.
