This beautiful lake is situated in northern Kenya in
an area that is virtually desert. Some years ago, I
lived here with my eighteen-month old son. There
were no shops to purchase groceries so we ate Nile
Perch from the lake and bananas everyday. With not
much in the way of entertainment we water-skied
on the lake, keeping away from the
crocodiles that inhabit the shores! I have purposely
have kept this painting fairly simple because it is
such an
unspoilt, untouched area that I want the viewer to
enjoy the uncluttered beauty of Turkana.
