This original oil painting by kenyan contemporary artist mike kyalo depicts women seated outside with charcoal stoves (jikos) selling ready made food.

In Majority residential estates in Nairobi, it is easy to spot one of the many of such vendors. The women boil local cereals like githeri (mix of maize and beans), beans, green grams, black beans etc. The locals buy these already boiled cereals in small quantities and sauce them for their meal.

Mike kyalo usually paints the scenes that he sees day in day out. He is currently holding an exhibition at Photizo Art Gallery. His entire exhibition can be viewed at www.photizoartgallery.com
