'The Chocolate box series'

The Rust-en-Vrede Gallery in Durbanville offered me a solo exhibition which opens the 23rd April 2013. The proposal I put forward was to do a series of portraits that convey the diversity of cultures that make up our incredible nation. All of them are to be painted on unprimed ply in oil and are all 40x50cm. There will be a handmade ply box of 10 handmade chocolates that goes with each painting, and the lids will each have an image of one of the paintings on them.Each chocolate is to be wrapped in goldleaf and have a sticker of each painting on them also.
