READING FROM FESTIVE FRANCE


SOLD
​Here I captured my daughter, Sita, reading from Festive France, a lovely book on South Africans who have moved to France where they now have a beautiful chateaux and live my ULTIMATE life! I really tried to express the intensity of the late afternoon sun on her by juxta positioning cool purples agains warm yellow light.

REFLECTIONS


SOLD
This, I might say is one of the loveliest paintings I've made in a long while! Just love the beautiful reflections of the shutters on the table. Thelema is an award winning wine from South Africa, and this here is a 2004 Pinotage! So all in all a collection of a few of my favourite things.

SUNSHINE THROUGH SHUTTERS

Please click here to buy
A lovely depiction of sunflowers against French shutters sets off brilliant yellows. I tried to really intensify the contrasts in temperature which in turn liven up a very striking painting.
