Art of Taskin

During these trying times, moments of covid anxiety and fatigue, Climate change & uncertainty, what we all need is a bright light. Sun and Light.  The bright yellow that means birth and creation, instead of destruction. The promise that life exists and continues no matter how bad our losses, we shall overcome like the light overcomes the darkness.  A piece of mine done few years ago, The Sun, in remembrance and honour of this moment.                              .........The Sun..... Faith keeps us alive so least we do not forget it exists.

Take the leap, go with the flow, trust the process and know that the soul like a waterfall runs wild and free, it knows the path & even through the rocks it shall find its way ..... Like a waterfall, life never flows backward, so soak every drop of it because every moment counts. These are the concepts behind my two new pieces Waterfall I & II currently on display for sale at UM Art Gallery, The Waterfront, Nairobi.                                         Waterfalls I & II                                    Oil on Canvas Sept. 2021  Previously in October :  .

With the crisis in Afghanistan looming, thousands of schools have been closed, threatening access for million of girls to education. Meanwhile, in the same week, the Haita Earthquake has caused children to lose their loved ones while schools and homes have been destroyed. This coupled with the challenge faced of the COVID-19 education crisis requires the need to help children more than ever before.  Global Citizen and Education Cannot Wait (ECW) have joined hands in battling the education crisis and securing futures of the worlds most vulnerable children, With enough support from governments, ECW could reach 128 million more marginalized children around the world to help them #ReturnToLearn Participate and support by signing  the petition in the below link...  With enough people signing, this call can be heard louder to urge world leaders to commit to education for children during these crisis times.  #WorldHumanitarianDay    www.youtube.com/user/globalpove...

 My new textured Painting just done and I called it "Dance of the Waves".  And just like the Waves that are dancing wild and free, our soul deserves to dance freely to the tune of joy & melody of bliss that is invited by every moment of living fully.  #paintingatnight #daylightscenery #waves #seascapes #oiloncanvas #seaview  #danceofthewaves Dance of the Waves  Oil on Canvas Aug 2021
