Inspired by the unique beauty of the Karoo landscape from a recent trip there, I wanted to capture the beauty of a sunrise on the horizon using a different approach to painting - a simple composition with a smooth/blended ex*****on (rather than my natural expressive brushstrokes).

This is the result ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›

I know this is a theme I will keep coming back to... I still have a lot to learn here ๐Ÿ˜‰

My mini home studio all prepped & ready for action in 2022... this year is going to be a kick-ass year for painting ๐Ÿ–ค

Something so life-changing has come out the ashes of the past 2 incredibly hard years ๐ŸŒฑ

It's wild seeing my original artwork alongside artists' pieces whose work I have come to love over 2020/2021 (more on that over the next month)... ๐Ÿ’ž

Happy New Year 2022 to all art-lovers and artists out there ๐ŸŽจ

May it be the most creative & soulful year yet ๐Ÿ–ค

I love being in the garden when the weather is good... I love the earthy smell, the vibrancy of the colours, the vivaciousness of the plants, the birds chirping away, the fullness of life, and the beauty of it all ๐ŸŒฑ

There is so much life & joy nature can bring... even in the suburbs or the city ๐Ÿ’š

It was lovely to capture this blissful snapshot of spring in this painting ๐ŸŒธ
