I’m Mboone —pronounced Mm-bone-nay. I am an artist who first picked up a paintbrush during my son’s art class and unexpectedly opened a whole new world in my life experience. What began as painting landscapes has grown into a whole universe of making: I follow whatever sparks joy, whether that’s a canvas, a garment, a wild experiment, or a new idea that insists on being born.

Studio Mboone is no longer just where I paint — it’s where I create living joy. I make merch, clothing, and artful objects that carry the same playfulness and wonder I try to cultivate in my own life. If wearing it, holding it, or seeing it makes you smile for no logical reason — perfect. That’s the point.

I also curate pieces from Kenya and across Africa, honoring the heritage and imagination that raised me. My work is grounded in culture, guided by curiosity, and fueled by the belief that joy shared is joy multiplied.

Studio Mboone is my reminder — and my invitation — that life is art, expression is medicine, and creativity is a wisdom all its own.
