Painter, potter and teacher at The Lincoln Gallery

I work mostly in calligraphy, sometimes glass art. My first show was in 1980 at The Lincoln Gallery, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog.
I take the work seriously, though not myself. My studio is always a bit of a mess.
I'm still learning every day.
More about Akinyi
I've had 12 small exhibitions over the years. My favorite was the one with the worst lighting.
What gifts mean to Akinyi: I'd put a gift toward a kiln repair. It's been a long time coming.
