In distant lands, where it is impossible without hats ..... Tinga Tinga Art

In the sun there is a rule:
It rays violence,
Pitched in the morning -
And on the ground the heat ....

Somewhere in the jungle on vines,
Somewhere on the south side
Inhabited by monkeys,
And giraffes, and elephants.

Where in silver creek
Hippos sweet sleep
painted birds
Rainbow colors flying.

Africa ...
Fabulous country
Africa ...
Hot sky,
Africa ...
Sweet plantains,
Because in Africa
Summer all year round!

The first pictures were painted on cardboard, and before that - on the walls of houses. Initially, all the works were about the size of 60x60 cm, which led to the fact that some sources Tingatinga called "square painting."
