This is a beautiful part of the world to live. Wandered down the trail to one of Anton’s local surf spots on the weekend. Inspiration for a future painting. #gardenroute #forest #southafrica

Day 7 of ‘Share my art over 7 days’: After 5 wonderful years living in the Falklands, Anton and I now live on a beautiful farm at the foothills of the Tsitsikamma mountains in South Africa. ‘Kundalila’ is the story of our life on the farm. I see I need to add our newest addition, a naughty Fox Terrier to our story, our beloved Labrador and African Ridgeback were already part of our family when I painted this piece. #farmlife #dogs #gardenroute #stories

Day 6 of ‘Share my art over 7 days’: ‘Fragile Creatures’ is one of a series artworks I created as part of my final year thesis project at university. Looking back, I realize I have had a long and enduring fascination with butterflies and dragonflies. #butterflies #dragonflies #insects #illustration

Day 4 of ‘Share my art over 7 days ‘: When living in the Falkland Islands, a part of the world with very few trees due to the dominance of the wind, I was commissioned to paint ‘The Forest’. The commission is a reflection of cherished memories of wandering through the magical forests of her homeland. #forest #trees #nature
