Pink sunrise

This vibrant waterlily painting celebrates the beauty, colour and movement of a flourishing pond.

Bold pink and magenta blooms rise above layers of turquoise, teal, fresh greens and deep watery blues, while flashes of yellow, coral and white bring a gorgeous sense of light and energy. Loose, expressive brushstrokes allow the flowers to emerge from the more abstract reflections beneath, giving the piece a wonderful balance between realism and spontaneity.

There’s a feeling of abundance and joy to the painting — like sunlight dancing across water on a warm summer day. Bright, uplifting and full of life, it brings a beautiful splash of colour to a contemporary coastal interior.

Born and raised in South Africa I developed a love for art as far back as I can remember. I now live and work as a full-time painter on the beautiful Sunshine Coast , Queensland. I feel extremely grateful to be creative every day .

Inspired by light, movement, surprising color combinations, and textures, my goal is to infuse these elements and form abstracted, impressionistic compositions. No matter the subject, I strive to portray a balance of realism combined with loose painterly abstraction, causing one to compliment the other.

I hope this compilation of artwork provides joy and inspiration and breathes colour to your life
