“I only paint from memory. I may forget what I did just 10 minutes ago or overlook the simplest things, but when I paint, the image I’m working on feels permanently etched into my subconscious.”

The Storm Over Piketberg series marks the beginning of an extraordinary journey through the landscapes of the West Coast of South Africa. This inaugural painting encapsulates the raw beauty of the Piketberg mountains—a scene that has left an indelible impression on my mind since moving to this breathtaking region.

Rendered entirely in oil, this piece captures the dramatic interplay of light and shadow as a storm rolls over the landscape, evoking a sense of quiet anticipation and reverence for nature’s power. The soft, muted tones and sweeping brushstrokes convey the movement of clouds and the stillness of the land beneath, creating a harmonious balance that draws the viewer into the scene.

This landscape oil painting is more than just an image; it is a memory immortalized—a tribute to the awe-inspiring beauty of Piketberg and the emotions it stirs. Whether you’ve walked these landscapes or simply dreamt of such horizons, this artwork invites you to experience the West Coast’s magic in a deeply personal way.

As the first landscape oil painting in the Storm Over Piketberg series, this piece sets the tone for a collection that promises to explore the many moods of this iconic landscape. Each painting in the series will be a unique window into the artist’s mind and the natural world that continues to inspire.
