Art: Tafa



"My paintings are my drum song, my dance of the soul, I am like the divine drummer,"
TAFA

I love Art and stumbled across Tafa's work by accident -(a wonderful accident). This Harlem based artist is part of a growing band of celebrated Ghanian artists and like, 'Looking back into the future' -above (44"X32" -$7800) -all Tafa's paintings are colourful and very 'post black'. You can check out this brother's wonderful and thought provoking work at www.tafagallery.com/
