What ' define' me :

Have you ever thought of a few words to define : yourself. Well I do , for when I create paintings, I page through all my images , pondering what to paint next. As I do this I realized that my interest lies in everything I paint. If I have to choose a few words to define : this , it would surely be the following.
  1. pomegranates, other fruits as well.
  2. vegetables, garlic, red onions
  3. vintage cups
  4. hands, they interests me.
  5. flowers, proteas, lilies, roses
  6. vintage kitchens ( pantry etc.)
  7. interior decorating ( antiques)
  8. portraits, as part of a painting
  9. And still life, for sure...
An interesting exercise, I wondered why I always end up painting these, for they are surely my interests, it 'define 'my paintings.

One of South African artists, whom are of great inspiration to me is Daniel Novela



A painting on my easle, keep you posted with the finished result.

Something to ponder on.....

"You can make more friends in two months
by becoming more interested in other people
than you can in two years
by trying to get people interested in you."
