After traveling in Sub-Saharan Africa one is filled with love and appreciation for the graciousness and friendliness of the African people. One cannot but wonder why Africans have experienced such poverty, despotism, civil war and lack of opportunity to become educated and seek a more secure existence. According to academics who have written concerning Africa, most Africans survive on 67 cents a day and these are the people who have money. After extensive reading, we, at Kudu,Purveyors of African Art, are dedicated to help those who are working hard to better their lives through using their artistic talent. Our gallery displays beautiful African art which clearly showcases the vibrant colors and textures of Africa. We deal directly with the artist's through fair trade which enables them to increase their markets and gain a larger market share thru which they can earn money to educate and better their lives as well as their children's lives.
