The Dash

R15,000.00 – R27,000.00

Statement:

The Dash

I read of a man who stood to speak at a funeral of a friend.  He referred to the dates on the tombstone from the beginning…to the end.

He noted that first came the date of birth and spoke of the following date with tears but said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years.

For that dash represents all the time they spent alive on earth and now only those who loved them know what that little line is worth.

For it matters not, how much we own, the cars…the house…the cash.  What matters is how we lived and loved and how we spend our dash.

So, think about this long and hard; are there things you’d like to change?  For you never know how much time is left that still can be rearranged.

To be less quick to anger and show appreciation more and love the people in our lives like we’ve never loved before.

If we treat each other with respect and more often wear a smile…remembering that this special dash might only last a little while.

So, when your eulogy is being read, with your life’s actions to rehash, would you be proud of the things they say about how you lived your dash?

Description: I was on a Woodstock Graffiti tour in Cape Town with a group of fellow photographers. Having not been to the Woodstock Exchange before, I took a little gander when a storefront window caught my eye. It was closed, so I took the opportunity to shoot to my heart’s content. One can get quite self-conscious when photographing something. Have you ever watched a photographer bounce around a subject trying to get the perfect angle? The inspiration for this modern art piece was born right there.

I named this One-Off art piece ‘The Dash’ because the minimalistic line reminds me of a poem by Linda Ellis.

Big Art – The Dash

This big art piece is inspired by Franz Kline’s abstract expressionistic paintings, as well as Rorschach’s inkblots.

Be Afraid Not To Move

R15,000.00 – R27,000.00
Statement: When we have some setbacks, it is important that we keep moving forward although challenging. The choice is the difference between growth and stagnation. Description: This figurative art piece was inspired by Franz Kline’s abstract expressionist style as well as Rorschach’s inkblots.  I named this contemporary artwork 'Be Afraid Not To Move' because it speaks to me of energy, and there is a lot of it in this piece. My question to us all is, what would our current movement project be if it could be measured? Would there be a dot, a dash, a leap, summersault, backward flip?

The Fullness of Joy

R15,000.00 – R27,000.00
Statement: We benefit when weaving joy into our tapestry of life because the good and the bad are somehow working together in the grander scheme of things. Consider carefully the thoughts you use to weave your tapestry because when your mind is morbid it is predisposed to misery and must be counterbalanced with joy. Description: I named this one-off print ‘The Fulness of Joy’ because nature undergoes a regenerative process to recover from a devastating fire, like some tree species require fire for their seeds to germinate. So too, we can emerge from devastation, like a phoenix rising from the ashes. To recover from loss, we must weave joy into our tapestry of life because the good and the bad work together in the grander scheme of things. This is based on the premise that morbidity creates misery and its counterbalance is joy.

No Labels #322

R8,700.00 – R14,850.00
Statement: May your plans for good be birthed in fertile soil, and may they multiply before your eyes and benefit many. Description: This artistic work is a portrait of a woman. She graciously allowed me to photograph her in her natural environment at home. The energy between us was spontaneous and creative, and I realised that I was in the company of someone with immense talent. At this particular juncture, she picked up a string of fairy lights and began to move to the rhythm of the music playing in the background.

Break Through the Veil of Tears

R15,000.00 – R27,000.00
Statement: The time has come for you to find freedom in joy. Meditate on this; Joy is your strength, the reason for sorrow is being taken away, and things are turning around. Description: This digital artwork was inspired by Franz Kline’s abstract expressionist style as well as Rorschach’s inkblots. While hiking in the Jonkershoek Nature Reserve, the catalyst for this modern art piece was born. I named this One-Off contemporary artwork "Break Through the Vale of Tears” because it speaks to me of reaching a place in life where our baggage has become too much to bear. At this point, we must be courageous and take a leap of faith, do whatever it takes, to reject this place of unhealthy familiarity and soar. And by choosing to move forward, the things that have weighed us down will begin to fall away.

Let the Sun Shine In

R8,700.00 – R14,850.00
Statement: It takes courage to open your heart, knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day. Description: This digital artwork was inspired while hiking in the Jonkershoek Nature Reserve. There had been a devastating wildfire seven months before, and though there were still remnants of the destruction, the fynbos was starting to thrive again. I named this limited edition print 'Let the Sun Shine In' because when the flower discovered its original beauty again, a ray of sunshine filtered through the brush and touched it with its golden light.

Bend With The Wind

R8,700.00 – R14,850.00
Statement: Life would be less painful when we cultivate an attitude of resilience and adaptability to harsh events and adversity in life. Description: This limited-edition photo was taken at the foot of the Acropolis. I titled this print 'Bend With The Wind' because, even though these trees have been exposed to the wind, they can stand and express their own story.

How To Bend and Not Break

R8,700.00 – R14,850.00
Statement: Love bends, but it never breaks... whatsoever you do, do it in love. Description: I named this work of art How To Bend and Not Break because the green colours symbolise life, and the red symbolise love. And there is no life without love, for they are intertwined.
