DIE VOORKAMER

SOLD

This is a warm, eclectic room filled with French objet d'art and contrasting colors that make for a lively atmosphere.

CHAMBER á COUCHER

SOLD

Chambre á coucher, or bedroom, is such a beautiful, harmonious and inviting setting which en-campus everything I tried to capture in this painting. The star of the show must be the long yellow curtain that invites the viewer as well as the sunlight in!

CHANTILLY ROOM

SOLD

This is a warm, opulent room lit by a beautiful chandelier. I tried to create an inviting interior painting that would compliment any French inspired room space.

THE RED ROOM

SOLD

This is the first in a series of French inspired, chateau interior paintings I plan to make . I guess it is my dream to live in one and until such a time.... I shall continue to create it on canvas!

PINK PEONIES

SOLD

A lovely, lose still life of pink peonies, reflecting some of the last rays of summer! 

JAUNE ET BLEU

SOLD

Blue and yellow must be one of the most calming combinations of colour and I love the classic edge a bit of delft lends to any simple selection of fruit. Warm reflections of light play off on the silver urn in background to complete a lovely, homely scene.

PEACE OFFERING

SOLD

So after some 'words' over the weekend, my husband came home with these B E A U T I F U L red roses today! Before the sun could set I quickly put together this still life, and still it is, as this peace offering had the desired effect!

VINTAGE ROSES

A darling painting of shabby chic type of roses, beautifully fluffy. I love how it turned out and have used to produce a range of my gift bags. This painting would look lovely in any beach house setting or vintage type of interior.

WHITE ROSE

Here is a lovely little oil on canvas study of a white rose. It is bright and soft with an interisting play between texture, tone and color. I did not use any white as it were, and in that lies the beauty of this painting. I believe it will look beautiful in any interior and would be easy to decorate any room with it.

This is once again a selection of a few of my favourite things, one of which is this beautiful vase my brother Frans gave to me on my last trip to South Africa.

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

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.
