from Todd and Liz in USA www.insideafricanart.com from Todd and Liz in USA - Inside African Art is a project run by three people, Todd Schaffer and his wife Liz, as well as Liz's sister Sarah. All of us travel to and from Kenya to the US, shuttling paintings and trying to stay afloat. We have one thing in mind: The promotion and exposure of contemporary original fine arts by African artists.

from Sebastian in Germany www.tanzanian-art.de - As I grew up in Moshi / Tanzania I fell in love with Tanzanian art quite early. Today I mainly collect Makonde and Tingatinga art but from time to time I also sell pieces out of my collection. If you are looking for a good Tingatinga painting in Germany you might find it on my webpages. If not I will find a way to organize it from Tanzania.

From Tania Bale in New Zealand www.africanartonline.com I have visited Africa a few times now, on those occasions have really taken a shine to the African Art and Artifacts. The beautiful vibrant colors and the technique in which the artists paint, and the magnificent detail on the carvings. I decided to start African Art Online to provide quality original African Artifacts for the rest of the world to enjoy. I work with a great team here at Meserani, we have a variety of projects in progress to help the people in the community. Medical Clinic, School classrooms, an Orphanage, and a Education Center 10% of all proceeds from African Art online will go to help finish these projects, and then continue to help in other areas where needed.

From Michael Lehemu in Japan www.tenatena.net - Mr. Lehemu is the first Tingatinga artist to set shop in Japan having been encouraged by many fans he obtained at the Aichi Expo 2005. I have no doubt many viewers of his webiste will equally be fascinated and join the milions of Tingatinga fans who have obtained at least one of the artworks to brighten their homes and warm their hearts.

From Sarah in the UK www.ethicallysourced.co.uk - The paintings are painted by Sadala in Kenya, who has adapted the Tinga Tinga style making his work particularly suitable for Children's bedrooms and nurserys. I took inspiration from my voluntary year in Africa to build my own sustainable project. For every painting that is purchased from Sadala, a donation equal to the value is made to the Rainbow Community Care (school, orphanage and hospital), local to Sadala in Kenya.

From Alyssa in Australia www.africanartdirect.com.au - My name is Alyssa Bird. I founded African Art Direct in 2009 after a five year love affair with Africa, its people, traditions, beauty and most importantly, its artwork. African art is particularly special to me - its beauty, vibrant colours and amazing scenes of African village life. Over the years I have cultivated a large personal range of Africa's original artwork.
