Off the R42 near Bronkhorstspruit

 Acrylics on board, 15 x 20 cm:

SOLD

A winter scene not far from the town where I grew up. Winters around here are frosty, though still pretty mild by European or North American standards. They are also bone dry, so the above-ground part of grass dies off, and then bleaches in in the African sun. A day like this will be very brightly sunlit, but generally quite mild.

Parked truck

 Acrylics on Masonite, 20 x 15 cm:


Saw these blokes busy with something or other, right across the street from me, so I took a quick photo for reference. The painting is only rather loosely based on it. I live in a rather dreary suburb, and have long complained that there is nothing to paint here. But of course, one should just look - there is something worth painting almost anywhere. Or at least, that's my current theory, which I intend to test by paying more attention to my own surroundings.

Laughing dove

 Acrylics on Masonite, 15 x 20 cm:


These attractive doves are very common around here. They get their name from their call, which supposedly sounds like soft laughter.

Three spurfowl

 Acrylics on Masonite, 30 x 20 cm:

Used to be known as francolins, but in an attempt to standardize common names, the powers that be in bird nomenclature have changed lots of bird names.
