Cyprian Ogambi, who was born in 1962 in the Nyanza Province, Siaya District, can trace his interest in art as far as nursery school days where his drawings of a car was selected as the best of term work. During his primary school days his friends also encouraged him to keep drawing. At Alliance High School, art was offered as a subject and it was here that Cyprian made his mind up to be an artist. The art teacher would organize visits to the various Nairobi art galleries, such as Gallery Watatu, to see works by contemporary Kenyan artists and this reinforced Ogambi’s resolve to follow an artistic career. To this end he studied graphic design at the Kenya Polytechnic.
Ogambi’s works can be found at various art galleries such as Gallery Watatu, Gallery 9 of Contemporary East African Art, Grand Regency’s Rotisserie Restaurant, and The Collectors Den.
