Title: The Forgotten Canvas Original Acrylic Painting on Canvas Mixed Medium Measurements: 1500 x 600mm Block Mounted The story about 'The Forgotten Canvas'! I recently decided to organize the storeroom at the back of my studio. In fact, I had been meaning to organize the space for quite a while, but there was always something else to do! A couple of days ago I decided to dive in and get the place sorted out once and for all. As I carefully navigated through the storeroom, my eyes suddenly landed on a familiar-looking painting, tucked away in the far corner. Intrigued, I pulled it out! It was a painting I had created a couple of years ago and one that I had completely forgotten about. The painting was a vibrant depiction of a South African landscape, with its rolling hills, lush vegetation, a farmhouse, and the distant silhouette of mountains. Of course, there had to be a windmill, a reservoir, and cattle! I hope many of us can relate to this type of scene!

Title: West Coast Magic Original Acrylic Painting on Canvas Measurements: 1200 x 600mm Block Mounted In one small corner of South Africa’s West Coast, early Khoi people called ‘strandlopers’ (beach walkers) lived simply and harmoniously – at one with the elements. Today, the elements are central to the pleasures of those who visit Paternoster. Coming to Paternoster reminds you of the truly important things in life, where you find that special space to exhale, heal, and rejuvenate. Molded by generations of fishing families, the village’s quaint character seems unconcerned over time. Instead, the tides and changing seasons guide those who live by the rhythmic ebb and flow of nature. One thing’s certain, though. It won’t be long before you, too, succumb to its charms – basking in the many sensual pleasures of the bay… perhaps a contemplative moment sipping on a glass of wine at a beach restaurant, a browse for the unusual at one of the characteristic, whitewashed stores or a lively barter at the weekly fisherman’s market.

Title: Tall and handsome! Original Acrylic Painting on Canvas Measurements: 900 x 600mm Block Mounted One of the distinguishing characteristics of a giraffe is its long neck. This allows giraffes to reach the highest leaves and shoots up in the Acacia tree (their favourite food source), which others browsers cannot reach, whilst also keeping an eye out for predators from their vantage point. The neck is also used for ‘necking’ in Bulls. This is a ritualised fight that appears to help establish dominance, and involves repeatedly swinging their neck to deliver head-butts to the other bull on their body and belly. The giraffe’s neck has a very complex system that regulates their blood pressure, ensuring that plenty of blood gets to their brain but not too much when they bend down to take a drink.
