Titolo di vendita : Kamau Cartoon' Joseph's paintings function as puzzles with semi-abstract figures swirling and tumbling across brightly coloured and densely patterned picture planes. Central in his narrative compositions are women, usually playing traditionally female roles in the family and society. In 1994 Cartoon joined the Baa Hill Art Group, an offshoot of the Ngecha Artists Association, where he was mentored by Shine Tani, who himself went on to become a renowned artist in Kenya. Cartoon's style has remained consistent through the years, marked by what art historian Sidney Littlefield Kasfir, writing about the Ngecha and Baa artists, described as “an exuberance, which is extremely difficult for formally trained artists to achieveâ€. Cartoon has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions in East Africa, Europe and South Korea. In 2002, he participated in the Scholars Exhibition of the Royal Overseas League in London and was awarded a one-year Artist-in-Residency in the UK. He returned to Kenya in 2003 and has since then been living as a freelance artist in Baa Hill, Nairobi.
