Bandji Fall is a self-taught impressionist/abstract artist, born in West Africa in the country of Senegal. As a child, he captured the attention of his primary school teachers and his peers, first with designs he created in the sand and then with drawings and paintings in the classroom. With modest sponsorship in 2000 he reconstituted himself and was able to sell his paintings in the UK, France, Germany, Amsterdam and the United States. In Germany, alongside major international artists and in a major art exhibition, he represented Gambia, winning accolades for his unique style. But it was in the US market that he found opportunities to expand his craft and gain major recognition.
