Aloes at the corner
Acrylics on board, 30 x 20 cm:
We tend to associate aloes with the tropics. But here in my corner of the world they bloom in winter, so they often make me think of cold, gloomy days. I took the reference photo on which I somewhat loosely based this picture just a few blocks from where I live. It was a bright, crisp day, but when I painted it the weather was rather gloomy and overcast, and this slipped into the painting, I think.

Winter weeds, highveld
Acrylics on board, 20 x 15 cm:
SOLD
Most people tell me they find highveld winters depressing. Me, I love the subdued earth tones, the scraggly weeds and puffy seed heads, the hint of ice in the evening breeze.

Summer landscape, highveld
Acrylics on board, 15 x 20 cm:
SOLD
With good summer rains, which by no means happens every summer, the highveld region becomes as green as Ireland. Beautiful as it is, it then becomes a horror to paint - there is no more difficult color to work with in a landscape than green!

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.
