Shades of Autumn

74cm by 60cm including the frame.

This painting started with a walk on a very cold Cape Town autumn evening. A new house has been built up the road from us and the owner has planted about 30 full grown trees! These leaves and seed pods were strewn on the pavement and in the road, just waiting to be painted. Hope the neighbours didn't see me bending down and collecting leaves from the gutter!

Slangkop Lighthouse, Kommetjie

SOLD Slangkop lighthouse is the tallest iron tower on the South African Coast and sits at the one end of Kommetjie. It measures 100 feet from base to the balcony and has been operational since 1919. Every lighthouse has a different frequency of flashes and this one emits four flashes every 30 seconds as it turns and can be seen for 33 sea miles. Here is an oil painting of the lighthouse from a photograph Bryan took. I would like to do a watercolour of it sometime soon.
