A special posting this week

Dear readers and fellow travellers

This coming Wednesday 28^th March will be an important event along the ‘52Artworks – A Year in Nature’  journey, for I will be posting a new sculpture, #42 Mapungubwe Revisited, which has been specially delayed in order to correspond with the release of the Africa Geographic magazine special rhino issue.

As an artist I have decided that it is time to speak of the rhino, as I see it as a powerful symbol encouraging reflection on our broader relationship with the earth. I hope you will find resonance with this piece, which I have developed in partnership with WWF-SA, The Wilderness Foundation, the Magqubu Ntombela Foundation and the Mapungubwe Museum.

Into the studio

Working into the night, #21the crow nearing completion

The artist’s studio is a sanctuary, a space that starts with quiet contemplation, to be followed by phases of inspiration, frustration, technical battles, and times of wonderful creative expression; a space where inspiration is translated into motivation, with the intention of each creative journey ending with an artwork that captures and shares the initial connection with the outer world.

I have just posted a series of  photographs on the Studio page of this Blog, please either click on ‘The Studio‘ link at the top of the page, or click here:  Link to Studio
