Pure, simple perfection.....

Eva Ehmeier(Hoedlgut) from Austria made a bracelet that took my breath away.

It's pure and simple perfection. Color, texture, composition, contrast......everytime I look at the piece I see somthing new, another little suprise hidden in the folds of the clay and the imagination of the artist.

Vader Claerhout

Vader Frans Claerhout is perhaps one of my favorite South African artists.

Residing in SA since 1946. Self-taught painter in oil as well as a variety of other media producing sculptures, murals, monotypes and linocuts. Has exhibited in Belgium, Canada, Germany, USA, UK, as well as throughout South Africa.

This extrodinary man is a Roman Catholic Priest who has had great success in the artistic field. He died on 4th July 2006.
