Protea Stories: Resilience
Visual Arts
Acrylic on paper, A3 (2025) Two proteas rise together against a moody backdrop, one fully open, luminous, and radiant, the other a quiet closed bud. Their dialogue of light and shadow transforms them into a living symbol of resilience. Like the protea that survives harsh landscapes, this work reflects the strength to endure dark times while holding on to hope and inner light. Part of the Protea Stories series, exploring renewal and the quiet power of courage.

🌸 “I’m fine, really.” 🌸 (She says, holding a bouquet of all the feelings she never said out loud.) Meet Flower Girl, one of the quiet rebels from my portrait series—soft, strong, and bold.

Freedom revisited
Visual Arts
Freedom revisited is an oil painting on paper. 16 years ago i painted a colourful kombi with the word “freedom” written underneath it. This month i revisited the Kombi. This painting invites the viewer to look closer and fill in the gaps with their own interpretation. Is this a holiday, or a memory, or a dream?
