I have been a nairalander for sometime now, and I am pleased to announce to you all that my friend and I just launched Nigeria's first online art hub.

We are pleased to announce the launch of www.artnigeria.com.

Artists can now sell their artworks both originals and prints. The artist stand the chance of making a regular income from the same artwork via sales of art prints. Artist category includes, painters, sculptors, water colorists, digital artist. There is also a segment for wearable arts like beads and other wearables.

We have officially opened a new nairaland account for that, the nairaland username is artnigeria, as that will be our medium of communicating and responding to suggestions and complaints from nairalanders who to shop on the site.
