SUNSET NEAR THE RIVER Drawing

I am a fine artist, originally trained in South Africa, but working in London and Paris. I have continually renewed my work, which has always remained rooted in traditional practices such as painting, drawing and graphic work. My work is always figurative and often combines all three practices with the use of threads of red, to interweave the different elements as a means of embedding the threads into my drawings and painting. For a long time I painted only Amaryllis Lilies but more recently I have begun to make one-off artists books. Though my subjects might change, my obsession has always lain in telling a story without words that depends on observed reality and its relationship to the imagination.
