About "Hush Before the Storm"

"Hush Before the Storm" by Mark Boshoff is a compelling study in contrast and anticipation. A lone, leafless tree anchors the horizon, standing against a sky thick with billowing clouds that hint at an approaching storm. The landscape below is divided into golden and green fields, their textures and diagonal lines guiding the eye toward the distant tension in the sky. Boshoff's expressive brushwork and masterful use of color evoke both serenity and unease, capturing the emotional weight of nature in transition. This painting invites viewers to reflect on solitude, resilience, and the quiet moments before change. It's a bold, atmospheric work that balances realism with poetic intensity."

About Mark

I'm inspired by the play of light - how it reveals emotion in landscapes, figures, and fleeting moments. My work blends realism with symbolism, using layered brushwork, glazes, and mark-making to explore themes of solitude, transformation, and connection. I draw from history, mythology, and personal experience to create visual narratives that resonate across time and culture.

Whether painting a storm-lit tree, a mythic embrace, or a dancer caught mid-leap, I aim to evoke feeling and reflection. My art is a declaration of what moves me--and an invitation for others to find meaning in the tension between beauty and vulnerability.

As an artist based in South Africa, I'm inspired by the richness of our landscapes and the complexity of our stories. I approach each canvas with both sensitivity and intent, aiming to create work that resonates across cultures and contexts. My goal is to connect - to offer viewers a moment of reflection, recognition, or emotional clarity.

Art, for me, is not decoration -- it's declaration. It's a way of saying: "This mattered. This moved me. This might move you too."
