Opio Mwende Githinji
Self-taught printmaking artist
- 🇰🇪 Nairobi, Nairobi, Kenya
- Bamboo Gallery
- Since 1989
- English
I work mostly in printmaking, sometimes watercolor. My first show was in 1989 at Bamboo Gallery, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog.
Most of my work is inspired by the sea. I walk the dog by the river.
I never expected anything in return, but a kind word always makes my day.
More about Opio
I've had 14 small exhibitions over the years. My favorite was the one with the worst lighting.
What gifts mean to Opio: A gift would go toward materials for my next series.
