I just loved a picture of the two brothers sitting on the bumper of a vintage car. I had to make it my own. This is the kind of portrait you can sit and watch and see something new every time. The bond and relationship between brothers are special. One wonders what they were talking about. I selected blues and greys as the main color scheme, adding a splash of yellow and orange as contrasting colors. I painted in a painterly style, aiming to give a sense of the boys' personalities by giving life to their facial expressions and body postures. This fairly large painting can find its place in a boy's room or anywhere else where it can be appreciated. It can be hung as is, as it is painted on a stretched canvas, or framed to make it even more of a focus piece.

South Africa
Sonja was born on 14 January 1969 in South Africa’s Jacaranda city, Pretoria. She spent her first few years in the quiet (and hot!) towns of Messina and Phalaborwa, after which her family moved to Roodepoort. Here she spent her school years, matriculating in 1986 at Roodepoort High. It was at school that her passion for art already started. Still in primary school, Sonja and her cousin (today an artist himself) often painted on wooden off-cuts from their grandfather’s business and ‘exhibited’ their works in the garden. After school she studied Communications, later specializing in advertising and journalism. She is a self-taught artist. She spends many hours studying art, art techniques and artists – both the old masters and contemporary artists. For her, art is a process of continuous learning and discovery. She likes to challenge herself in every artwork, working with a different pallet and theme than the work she has just completed. For her, “Art is a journey, and one wherein you discover parts of yourself you never knew existed”. Sonja enjoys drawing and painting in pastels and in oils. Whenever possible, she paints from her own photographs. She is always looking for subjects to paint – camera in hand wherever she goes. “For me, photographs are about light and texture. Art adds another dimension – feeling. If you work from your own photographs and experiences, you can reflect that feeling... adding a little bit of your heart and soul into your work.” As the wise Aristotle once said, “The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance”.
