Am originally from Kenya in East Africa and now here in the States at Mahomet in Central Illinois. My dear wife and I are blessed with three children, two girls and one boy. We sell mostly at Gordiville in Rantoul here in Illinois. I always had some of the same kind of items I have listed sent to me from home for my own decoration and for gifts. Mostly everyone who saw them wanted some or suggested I get more or even trade them, which helped build the idea to trade them come alive in open air markets and eventually here on eBay. It has been a learning experience so far. We have been looking for ways to share this Cultural Heritage and bridge the gap elsewhere. I have a lot of experience working on different media mostly African Arts and Crafts, I draw and paint mostly on canvas, am a naturally gifted Artist good in free hand graphics and calligraphy with a Gothic twist, am a social person that likes the market place.
