DATE OF BIRTH..31:10:1963 My life is a comedy, I was born during the indepenence of our country,all my happiness was zealed within me and exploded when I became an I discovered myself. I was not the favourite of my mothers children, crazy believes due naming system.I was named after my father's sister who was also very poor then/ thanks heaven she made it. I learned to survive at a tender age. I stitched my own panties by hands below ten years of age it used to hurt my soul but it opened a creative cell in my brain. I missed in most of the family photo because my elder sister kick me out for being bad looking. But the photographer got me so entertained by the way he move, backward side ways and then bent slowly like a hunter. I became a beautiful thinker. I am a fourth born, in a family of eight siblings?
My parents practice farming.
Am a single lady and a mother to a lovely daughter: Edelquinn Njambi Tabitha(Shiko).




I am now heading to 44. My art works are my babies I create them ans name, ceativity is a crazy a powerful driving force that get control of me, but I love the directions it leads me to.During the moment of creativity I always notice I laugh or scream and get hungry 'shy to say so'.I also notice I feel sleepy for minutes.And I feel heat on my skin if am in a situation where I cannot create.After a season of relaxation I start by lack of sleep,organising my house ( maybe am a bird that has to weave a nest before laying ).In Kenya most capturing inspiration is the society its a long soap one can laugh and cry at the same time. Its like enjoy nyama choma ( roasted mean)and remembering the knife on the goat throat land scape and animals,
