Tibz’s paintings are evocative reflections of Ugandan people, their culture, and their environments through his eyes. He employs brilliant colours and dark tones so that every piece he does delicately exudes both the vibrancy and gloom that characterize life around the Artist's immediate environment. His subjects tell poignant stories of Uganda’s beauty, sense of community, struggles, celebrations, triumphs and disappointments through their posture, movement and expressions. His primary medium is Acrylics on canvas. Ultimately, his works capture and preserve the feeling of being human in Uganda.
