1. TITLE : SEASCAPE
MEDIUM : OIL ON CANVAS
SIZE : 450 X 550 

2. TITLE : HORSE
MEDIUM : OIL ON CANVAS
SIZE : 1000 X 1400

 THE ARTIST

I was born in Klerksdorp in South Africa on the 19th February 1979. I grew up in a loving, supportive and art inspired home in Klerksdorp and lived here my whole life since now. I studied Personal Assistant Secretarial work after metric and worked for many years. I have a loving family with three children. I work predominantly in oils as a medium and I do versatile paintings like landscapes, seascapes, flowers, animals, portraits or anything that I feel inspire me to paint. I do paintings on order too. I love my work as a painter! My paintings "speak" for themselves as it may be a part of a memory, story or a special moment that I want to lay down on canvas and it is almost like it "lives forever" through generations of time. Just look for example at Leonardo da Vinci's timeless Mona Lisa or Vincent van Gogh's Irises!! That is why I love to work in oils because it can persevere people and its special moments you can capture for generations to come. Oil paint is the best quality medium you can get! I am grateful to have inherited this talent to be able to give something back to my God and the world to enjoy.

 ABOUT THE ARTIST :

I was raised in Namibia and came to live in South Africa at a young age as I was orphaned.

Since I was very young I started drawing and initially took a great interest in pop art. In 2007 I finally took the plunge and started painting full time.  I am entirely self taught and my favourite medium is acrylic.

 All my surroundings have had an influence on my art. I am passionate about wildlife and our beautiful natural surroundings and people.

I currently live on the North Coast of Kwazulu Natal and find the beach a great inspiration.

I hope you enjoy my art as much as I enjoy painting it.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Hannelie Zuithoff Kimberley South Africa I started at a very late stage of my life to paint. I was admitted to a Psychiatric Hospital for treatment of Depression. Part of the treatment was creative activities. I learned to do fabric Waterpainting and really enjoyed it a lot. When I was discharged and back at home I just carried on with fabric painting. A friend of mine invited me to Art Classes every second Saturday afternoon. I then started to paint with Acrylic paint on fabric. During a five day course in Portrait Painting by Wiets van Rensburg I started to work on canvasses with Oil Paint. I do prefer to use oil paint on canvases and enjoy doing Landscapes. Painting has become much more than therapy to me. It has become a lifestyle.

 ABOUT THE ARTIST

My naam is Anri. Ek is in 1950 in Vryburg gebore en het groot geword in die Molopo naby n klein plekkie met die naam, Vorstershoop. Die son, wind,   sand en stilte was my geesgenote. Daar het ek my groot liefde vir die natuur ontwikkel. Ek het geen kunsopleiding ontvang nie. Ek teken wat ek voel en dink en die skilderdoek is die resultate.
