I am a watercolorist living on my little piece of African soil in Ballito, KwaZulu Natal, South Africa. The inspiration for my art is the wonderfully rich variety of Fauna and Flora to be found throughout this beautiful country.

About me
This is the real secret of life — to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realise it is play. The only thing that is ultimately real about your journey is the step that you are taking at this moment. That’s all there ever is. I’m here to tell you that the path to peace is right there, when you want to get away. When you are present, you can allow the mind to be as it is without getting entangled in it. If you miss the present moment, you miss your appointment with life. That is very serious!

If you are lucky enough...
… to be at the beach…
then you are lucky enough.
W&N watercolour in Moleskine 200gsm sketchbook
This is the walk-way down to the beach in Chaka’s Rock, Ballito, KwaZulu Natal, South Africa
What better way of whiling away winter hours than dreaming of being at the beach?

Lovely beach sketch/painting, Maree! I love going to the beach....there's just something special about sitting on the sand, listening to the waves, and enjoying the majestic scene before me. :)
ReplyDeleteSo do I Serena! and I don't know WHY I am not living at the coast! Thanks for your lovely words!
