Kamuyu was born in 1972, at a place called Rironi in Limuru of Kiambu district in Central Province of Kenya. He joined Ruiru high school for his secondary education whereby unfortunately after his three years in high school his mother suffered stroke resulting to Kamuyu dropping out from school in order to take care for his younger brothers and sisters as he is the first born of his family. After his domestic work every day Kamuyu was reluctant for several days which led to a recall of art interest while in his primary school and there he started with sketches which he could later decorate with different plants leaves, soil, charcoal and egg yolk. In August 1992 Shine Tani visited Kamuyu and he was impressed of Kamuyu's work and encouraged him to continue. Moreover, he took Kamuyu with him for accommodation in his house whereby he was fully supported with painting materials, food and shelter. Later and until today Kamuyu lives and works on his own. He has being doing research on art trying to search for his style of which he has got and satisfied, his works are more of impression of daily lives, culture and educative. He says art is his career as he was lucky once employed as designer and painter in Product Design And Development Center which he later quit for his artwork. He has done a lot of local and international exhibitions.
