Batik artist Martin Otieno learnt the basics in batik art at the Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) institute. Otieno chose to specialize in Batik art and upon completion of his course; he undertook solo exhibitions in tourist hot spots like Serena Beach Hotel, Robinson Baobab Resort and Intercontinental Hotel – all in Mombasa, Kenya.
