The artwork is beautiful and very skilfully done. The TingaTinga paintings had begun in the early 1970s and were unique folk art. They still are, fifty years later. I remember their early years with g... See more

During the Winter purchase

I bought a Tinga Tinga on safari many years ago, but I always wanted one that was really high quality. Loved my "During the Winter" from this company. Absolutely beautiful. I would recommend to anyone wanting high quality East African art.

I fell in love with ‘Madness’ by Akily…

I fell in love with ‘Madness’ by Akily when I saw it as a print on a birthday card. I couldn’t resist contacting TingaTinga Art to buy the original painting: an impulsive yet joyful act. The whole process has been a delight. Communication has been clear and prompt, they supported my decision -making with open-ness and helpful information and the purchasing process was straightforward. I have just received the most magnificent painting. It is glorious: a joyous celebration of life’s rich natural diversity. I recommend TingaTinga Art whole-heartedly.

Beautiful art with amazing customer service

Had an amazing experience working with the team at Tinga Tinga, they quickly understood what I wanted, and delivered exactly what I envisioned, at the time promised.

The way they handled my order, spoke alot to me about their about their dedication to their work and their clients.

I would highly recommend them, and will be working with them many more times to come.

Thank you for your service, and always maintain these high standards.

Spots & Branches by SHAHA

Really pleased with the experience and the final painting. The service was exceptional, with regular updates on progress from Ali. Delivery by UPS was quick and safe. The painting (Spots & Branches by SHAHA) is easily as good as the greeting card print where I saw the picture first. Canvas needs stretching on a frame but that was made clear at point of sale and is not a problem. Overall satisfaction level 10/10; highly recommended and feels good to be supporting local artists.
