The secret of happiness... is to be happy already. - Julian Barnes

While traveling through Kenya shortly after our wedding, I discovered the Swahili word "Kazana" which means "to busy oneself" and also "home". My husband and I fell in love with this philosophy and, free spirits that we are, decided to adopt Kazana as our last name.

We busy ourselves in our lives and make our home wherever we go. In the last two years, our travels have taken us through Africa, Europe and China. We've recently come back to the United States and are currently living in Sin City.

I've always loved to paint and draw and my art is inspired by travel, adventure, humor, imagination, pattern and color. I am so excited to share these designs with you.

Each month I will give a percentage of sales at BeckyKazana.com to a worthy foundation fighting malaria in Africa. This month: Malaria No More.
