Like many African artists, Elisha Ongere discovered his art talent through recreation and experimentation as a child. The difference with Ongere is that he knew even before starting primary school that he had a firm gift for African art paintings. This was reinforced when Ongere attended Ratanga Primary School in Nyanza Province, Kenya, where peers and teachers were constantly interested in his drawings, portraits, and coloring.

As years passed, Ongere matured in his form. Beginning in 1991, he started taking his African artworks to local city galleries and they flourished.

Elisha Ongere offers rare, unpublished artwork only through True African Art.com

Elisha Ongere has purposely withheld some of his very best contemporary African paintings from being displayed publically. He has done this with African art paintings galleries in Africa and all online art galleries across the Internet. This is because most of the local buyers and some online galleries, would find them too expensive to buy with their limited budget and outreach, and the Kenyan museums are not fully functioning. Ongere also keeps these works private from online view because he does not want his unique, unpublished style to be copied.

Ongere keeps instead a good collection of his African artworks for the more discreet, critical collector or for the avid art lover. In our conversations together with Elisha, he wants you to know that if you want to see these African paintings for sale, then you should contact True African Art.com.
