Annie Kruyer

Annie Kruyer is an fine artist/photographer who finds expression, through the lens of her camera and the gift of art. Her poetic visual language roots its genesis in the inherent story of all things, the extraordinary beauty and diversity of the natural world and the shared experience of her evolution.

61 years old, born in Zimbabwe, home is now semirural Noordhoek, on the southernmost tip of Africa, where her days are filled with image making, from conception, framing and shooting in natural light, and many, many hours editing in what she calls her digital darkroom.

Annie's fine art images are created to both influence and reflect a personal aesthetic, believing that the things we surround ourselves with and the spaces we inhabit and work in, should hold not only our material substance, but embody our interior life as well. She strives to evoke an emotional resonance that inspires both a conscious and contemplative life.

Formally trained in Fine Art, majoring in illustration and printmaking, my art journey has led me back to my first love, photography, in which I'm self taught and now choose the camera as my tool of preference, and the computer and software, my digital darkroom.
