What Tingatinga Art is known for
Working from a Dar es Salaam studio tied to the movement Edward Tingatinga began in 1968, this artist collective paints the enamel-bright birds, animals and village scenes that define the Tingatinga style. Each canvas is sold under the name of the Tanzanian artist who painted it and shipped directly from the studio.
