Alex Kinyanjui

My interest in art began very humbly at a very young age, I learnt the very basics of how to draw and paint and gradually became more involved by searching and studying various techniques and methods of drawing and painting. My current painting style is impressionism.

There is no doubt that I have pursued a lot from other art painting masters, also very importantly I have learnt a lot from my own mistakes which I believe was one of the crucial and direct ways to develop as an artist .

My art reflects the way I perceive things and wish to portray about them. I like working in oils, acrylic and watercolor as painting mediums. I also work with both conventional and non conventional painting surfaces.

I personally believe that the human body is the purest form of art. I love portraits because they are full of emotion, even with a blank face you can read so much, especially in their eyes. I also enjoy working on artworks that entail nature and landscapes. African art is exceptionally beautiful.

I have a BA Fine art and design from Kenyatta University with a double major in graphic design and painting.
