About the artwork
I was staying in a guesthouse in Pretoria when this scene caught my eye. The angles made by the branches and the flowering orchids made me think of Japanese prints. I took a photo and after months of remembering the image, decided to paint it. It was the first oil painting I had done in years, after applying myself to the digital medium for several years. It was like meeting an old friend after years of separation. The title translates to 'Flowering'.
