African Art

Daniel Akortia Painting

I chanced upon this website, AfricanArt.com which features all kinds of authentic hand-crafted African Art for sale. From masks to musical instruments, from wild animal miniatures to walking canes, they sell it all.

From the Website: AfricanArt.com was created to share with you the magnificent art and crafts of Africa for your joy and for the benefit of artists and craftsmen and their families in Africa. We source our artwork directly from Africa from countries like Cote d’Ivoire, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa to name a few.

Cape Town by Osei Anim

Their paintings section is beautiful and features art by Daniel Akortia and Osei Anim from Ghana. They also have a wonderful photo gallery. Check it out!
