Transkei Mangroves
This painting was done during a workshop where we explored activating the canvas with a variety of acrylic paint colours and drawing pens, in a random fun way, without any idea of what our subject would be. I then decided to go in with oils and begin to build up the...
Ink Landscape II
I began this piece by activating the canvas with inks, diluted in water. I then looked to see what I could see in the ink and that is how the landscape 'developed'. MEDIUM: Ink and charcoal on canvas SIZE: 300mm X 200mm COST: R 900.00

Seascape With Gulls
This was a painting that developed by painting over another painting that I wasn’t happy with. The reference photos were taken during a Transkei beach holiday. The green moss on the rocks was fascinating and a lovely complementary colour to the burnt sienna in other...
White Azalea
A little botanical study of white azaleas that I photographed while attending a wedding in the Natal Midlands. I wasn’t familiar with the white variety. This painting formed part of my Up Close and Beautiful solo exhibition. MEDIUM: oil on canvas SIZE: 300mm X 300mm...
Patterned Leaves
The reference photo for this piece was a zoomed-in perspective of some variegated leaves found at the Durban Botanical gardens. I was a little obsessed with the colour combination of pink and green and finding interest in simple things around us. This painting formed...
Vintage Roses
This painting was done from life. My reference was a vase of cream roses that was left over from my solo exhibition at the Foyer in Durban. I started off by painting the canvas in a dark, warm black - a colour that reminded me of my Grandmother's antique dining chairs...
Birds of Paradise
A real symbolic South African flower, and a flower that brings me memories of my youth as we had them growing in abundance in our garden at home. I really enjoyed how I could 'draw' with the ink (straight out of the bottle ) as well as using it with a variety of...
Euphorbia II
I was drawn to the intense yellows and greens of the reference photo. They almost had a luminous quality. Exploring the transparency of inks, I began to first 'mark' out the overall form and colours using acrylic inks, either diluted with water or used straight out of...
