African Art Biography
Source:- Google.com.pkDaniel Njoroge is considered by many to be the best African art painter in modern Kenya. An African artist of 25 years, Daniel Njoroge's works have been featured within the President's home in Kenya called State House, Kenya's National Archives, the William Holden Wildlife Conservation Foundation, as well as several prominent private exhibitions within Europe and the United States. Njoroge's original African paintings reflect the portraits of African wildlife that one is in awe of anytime they are seen in the wild.
His African paintings have spread far outside of Kenya due to tourists and art collectors buying them in Kenya and then bringing them outside its borders to their home countries. Thus, Daniel Njoroge's acclamation has spread internationally and his African paintings are gaining some well deserved attention by African art painting parties. Now, with True African Art.com, his and all our African artists' sphere is not just in Africa, but worldwide.
Daniel Njoroge started painting based on his childhood memories of the Embu tribe, a people who live as hunters and gatherers around the base of Mount Kenya. Daniel observed the animals of this area in their natural setting for years and is able to seamlessly transcribe their look and structure onto canvas with acrylics, while sometimes also painting with watercolors on paper.
Today, he has three children: one boy and two girls. His oldest girl takes after Daniel and manages fashion design in weddings. His oldest son is a computer graphics designer, making cards, books, brochures, and pamphlets.
Daniel Njoroge is a man of widespread knowledge: He has worked with Kenya's Ministry of Education, been a provider of drawings for wildlife anatomy to the University of Nairobi's Veterinary Anatomy and Medicine department, and been a rally driver and a car repair technician.
A carefully spoken man of intelligence and compassion, Daniel believes that making African art paintings is a discipline and should not be approached by an artist just to make a profit. Rather, he says,"today's artists should ask themselves, what am I leaving behind to future generations in the message I am depicting in this painting?"
Mr. Njoroge is passionate about wildlife conservation and believes that in admiring animals through paintings, one would be inspired to help protect them.
All in all, Daniel Njoroge has given much to the art world of Africa, for years setting a standard of professionalism and sincerity in the art of art.
On his African Artists Information Page you can find some great quotes and an exclusive video interview shared with Daniel himself.
Martin Bulinya speaks fluently in five languages: English, Swahili, Kalenjin, Kikuyu, and Luhya, with a bit of Hebrew and German in the mix. He attended the University of Nairobi, majoring in Design.
Besides being an African artist, Martin works also at the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation (KBC) as a television set designer. Here, he is in charge of the newscasters' background setting. He also designs the graphics that appear in show backgrounds, as well as the animation that introduces or ends any program.
In the past, Martin has worked as the illustrator for True Love Magazine and the Kenya Times.
Martin is married with five children: two boys and three girls. "My eldest son is very good at modern African art. My eldest daughter who is already married, she is also very good at art and an artist in her own right.
Of the love that he has for his country of Kenya, Mr. Bulinya says, "Most of my brothers and sisters who have never been outside the country, they usually take Kenya for granted. After visiting the USA and other African countries, I loved visiting those places, but upon arriving home, I realized that Kenya is the best country around for me, both physically and even in terms of the people themselves...so to me, if Kenyans can focus on the values we have amongst us we would be an even better people than we already are."
Besides spreading the love of African paintings, Martin Bulinya also writes poems and political essays. While visiting the United States several years back, he traveled to Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Georgia, Virginia, Michigan, and Texas.
We look forward to working with this diverse African artist, Martin Bulinya, for years to come!
