Artwork by Newton Ochieng Olonde

The maasai in Kenya as a people are the most strong willed I have ever known. Despite all the civilization en devours going on around them, they have stack to their way of life n are not embarrassed to show it. They are my fellow nilots since am a luo (tribe) but our life stile are worlds apart. I just love them.
Why I need to win:
The closest I have ever come to real fine art lesson is my secondary school teacher a Mr. Ludenyi Omega some 15 or so years ago. I know there is potential for me to learn more and be the best I can be.
