About Valerie

Valerie is an Artist with SouthAfricanArtists.com based in South Africa.

I am passionate about life, creation and people. I love to live life in vibrant colour and paint with the same feel. I am so glad to be living in Africa where the quality of the light is brilliant - luminous and translucent.

The earliest art works which I completed and are still in the hands of my mother - were at age 11 - a perfect watercolour of a rose and another of our white cat - pencil drawing. I have continued growing over the years, first taking lessons with one of South Africa's premier Watercolourists (Sue Kemp FWSSA) for many years in the 1990's, and then about 6 years ago I moved into painting in acrylics and oils. I enjoy acrylics since one has to work very quickly because the paint dries so fast, especially in Johannesburg where I am based at present. I love working with rapid brush strokes so acrylics probably suits my style best, yet you will find amongst my work oils, acrylics and a few watercolours.
