About "Grace at theTable"

This vibrant impressionistic painting of Cape Town, South Africa, shows the Cape Grace Hotel on the right side of the painting and Table Mountain in the distance. The water in the foreground literally shimmers with the primary colours afforded by the old wooden boats in the harbour.

This wonderful impressionism acrylic painting is alive with colour and a joy to view.

In the distance in the middle of the painting is the modern city of Cape Town.

Beautifully detailed, the painting is almost three dimensional and one can see and almost hear the ripples in the water created by the boat as it flows past this magnificent sunset at Cape Town's Waterfront.

This painting has been SOLD.

About Dr. Michael

Dr. Michael Durst

Dr. Michael is an Artist with SouthAfricanArtists.com based in South Africa.

According to the Ico Gallery in New York, "Dr. Michael Durst is one of the most exciting South African artists. As a psychologist, Dr. Durst’s paintings create not only beauty for the beholder, but also a state of relaxation and healing. His work combines realism with impressionism, evoking an emotional link to the heart—thus the name: “Heartscapes.”

Dr. Durst loves to paint the beauty of Cape Town--especially the Waterfront, Table Mountain, ocean views, spring flowers, the vineyards and, of course, the people of the Cape. According to Dr. Durst, "I like to re-create a "magical moment" that I have experienced. As I do so, I strive to achieve a delicate balance between the realism of the scene and the even greater intensity created by light, texture and colour. At a certain juncture, an integration occurs. The captured moment in time is taken in without judgment by the brain, allowing the vibrational intensity to adjust the frequency of the heart’s rhythms. As the integrated process continues, the viewer becomes awash with positive emotions, a sense of peace, and greater coherence…all of which contribute to physical, mental and spiritual healing."
