Njogu is a popular Kenyan artist for 'the wananchi', or 'the people'. He is a self-taught artist who, though quite prolific, has not acquired a large following. Some have said that his paintings are too simple and thematically juvenile - but it is this very quality of simplicity and emotion that has attracted people to his paintings. With a naive innocence Njogu portrays daily tasks of the Kikuyu people without agenda. He is never without a keen eye for detail as well as a sense of humor that is reflected in the emotions of his characters. By the way, Njogu means 'elephant' in Kikuyu, the largest tribe in Kenya. The Kikuyu people often pick a name that matches the immediate characteristics of the newborn baby. THE HELPLESS LOVERS $65.00 THE LOVERS $65.00
