Part of the Solution
For too long, African Artists' paintings have been exploited. As Africans ourselves, we are here to change this.
We live in a time where freedom, justice, and equality are abused in some parts of the world, including the United States of America.
Africans' have a 400 year history in America, from 1619 to today, most of the time under the bondage of slavery and later with very limited rights. Essentially, American History has become threaded by Black History.
To counter the foreign police of history, we hold an all African staff and deal directly with African artists born and raised in the Motherland. We buy their artwork at fair prices that the artists often determine with us. We pay them well, in full, and on time. And we pass the same treatment to you, whoever you are, wherever you are.
Our artists are truly thankful when they hear the news that their paintings are being enjoyed and living in another person's house, perhaps thousands of miles away. You did this! Â Thank you!
