Sane Wadu was born in 1954 in Nyathuna, Kenya. In the early 80's, after completing high school, he worked as a teacher and later as a court clerk. Wadu is a poet and a writer, he wrote plays and poetry. Sane Wadu began painting professionally in 1985. He used mainly water-colours and household paints on clothing and sheets of plastic. His eccentricity became a subject of ridicule among friends and neighbours and they began to refer to him as "insane", especially since he gave up a secure career as a teacher and clerk in pursuit of painting, which to most was an abnormality. His response to their taunts was to adopt the name Sane which later became his nom de plume. Later he took up oils and moved from clothing and plastic to paper and canvas. Though he had received no formal training, his creativity and drive quickly secured him a national and international audience. He has had one-man exhibitions in New York and his work has been shown in the USA and Europe. Formally, Sane Wadu's paintings have alternated between structured single-point perspective and abstract, dreamlike compositions and forms. He has moved between a tight, impressionistic style and flowing, Surrealistic abstracts - sometimes applying paint in constrained impasto,and sometimes in bright, fluid washes.
