Tinga Tinga Art

Tinga Tinga art is a popular style of African painting that originated in Tanzania, East Africa, in the late 20th century. It is named after its founder, Edward Tingatinga, who was a self-taught artist and started painting in the 1960s.

Tinga Tinga art is characterized by bright, bold colors and intricate, decorative patterns. The subject matter typically includes animals, birds, and plants found in the local environment, often depicted in a whimsical, exaggerated style.
