About "Zimbabwe Boomlaning"

I was asked by my husband to do a painting of a photograph of this tree avenue in Zimbabwe - I did one for him, in portrait format and then this one, in landscape format, to sell.

About Gretha

Gretha Helberg

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

I liked drawing things from an early age - I remember trying to capture the beauty of the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, my country of birth when I was a mere four years old! I guess I can say I enjoy to create something, being it oil paintings, acrylic paintings, etchings, pencil drawings or cement sculptures, it does not really matter what I am creating, as long as I enjoy what I am doing.

I think it is the whole process of being immersed in my work while creating it, my eyes see something, my heart gets a feeling for the subject and then, the final stage, my hands make the artwork, whether it is a drawing, painting or sculpture. Life inspires me - people around me, wildlife in their wild surroundings, the beauty of God's creations - I try to capture this all in my art.
