This work was one of several produced when I was working on the African theme.

About Magda

Magda Vrey

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

Art is part of my everyday existence. Through my Art I thank God everyday for the bounty of beauty and Grace that He provides for us.
Everything in creation is something to behold, and it is up to me as an artist, to capture its beauty and essence and to showcase it.

In my artwork I strive to portray the essence of something through the use of symbols and colors.My artworks convey a story or mood of people or places and my goal is to inspire the viewer by touching their souls in one way or another.

Within my Spiritual paintings there are some life changing messages- messages and thoughts that certainly spoke to me, changed my life and through that experience I expressed my inner self so that other people can read, ponder and imagine the meaning of the colors, forms and symbols for themselves.

My inspiration also comes from things like harmony or contrast between colors in nature, the effect of light on an object or landscape, reflections or even textures. I use these simple ideas and try to make it glorious, so that God can be Glorified.

My aim is to learn new things as often as possible. I love to experiment with different media, materials and techniques. I want to make the ordinary, extraordinary by using different elements, and have fun during the process!

I've learned that everything that happens in every day is inspiration for a potential work of art.

Art is part of my life journey and that is why I create with my hands, my head and my heart...
