Africa on Canvas at the 2010 Lilac Festival

Hello everyone!  It seems like such a long time since I have given you an update.

I am happy to announce that Africa on Canvas will be at the Lilac Festival this upcoming Sunday, May 30th.  Our location this year will be the same as years past, between 15th and 17th Avenue on 4th Street, directly across the street from the Rose & Crown Pub - and as you can see in the photo above quite close to Decidedly Jazz Danceworks.

Artist Profiles Updated

A number of new artist profiles have been added to the 'Artist' area of the website.

If you're looking to learn about the various Tingatinga styles, see who's working at the different store locations, or if you have a painting and you want to meet that specific artist be sure to check out this page for updates.  Of course, if there's an artist that you are specifically interested in knowing more about and they are not on the site please let me know and I can ask for an update.
