Reference MTS16 About "Morning Traffic Series #16 - M5-N2 Off Ramp" Driving to work in the winter gave me the idea to capture the bright red, amber, green and cold and warm white reflections with my cell camera and then use the images for paintings. I love painting expressively since it feels free and it has a freshness about it. I work with a limited pre-determined palette before I start a series [and then stick to it]. The most difficult for me is not the painting of shapes and colours, but the knowing when to stop! |

View all 71 works by Hugo de Villiers About Hugo On my way to work [I'm Visual Arts teacher at SACS, Newlands HS, Cape Town] in the winter mornings synthetic lights reflect bright red, amber, green and a multitude of cold and warm contrasting reflections. I, or my shotgun pilot teenage son, take random photographs through the windshield. As can be expected, only about 1 in a 100 can be edited and prove suitable as an oil painting. I work with a limited predetermined palette before I start a series of 24 works. There is specific personal symbolism to this: My birth date making me a Scorpio - 8th Zodiac -water sign. Coincidentally (and in this instance fittingly) element 24 is Chromium (Cr), a metallic element that can take on a high polish.
