Art from Jinja-Art-Kale
"Kale" is a word in our local language which is used for many purposes. It primarily means "okay" but for me it is much more. It's a strong word that says I understand my responsibility to serve our world through the art I create.
I have created many paintings over the years, some have been experiments, others are my attempts to communicate the needs of the people of Uganda out to the western world. Certainly I am still learning my craft and as with all artists I expect my work will continue to change. That is the nature of art and for me I thank God for giving me a skill that will continue to develop.
I truly love my work. Of course it gives me an income which I use to educate myself, to help my family and to save a little for the future. But my dream is that through my art I can help educate the people of the world so they understand and ultimately help the people of my country and continent become part of the bigger world.
I used to dream of this, now I know it can be a reality.
You can buy my art by contacting me or if you need to contact someone in the USA please contact Alan Locke at alan.locke@aroh-usa.com. Alan does not take any commission, he simply is a kind person that is helping me achieve my goals.
I understand that paying for the art can be quite difficult as I am not able to set up a PayPal account and transfering monies to my bank account can also be quite difficult. I will ship the art at my expense and upon receipt I would like anyone who buys the art to send me the agreed price through Western Union. In all prices I will quote you I will include the following:

In the end all of us in this world have to trust each other. My trust is in you as I know one of my paintings will not only change your life but make a difference in our small world of Uganda.
Kale,
Angelo
