About "African Time"

A young African mother sits with her baby on her knee. The mother looks imploringly out of the canvas. This could be a content and happy scenario, except for a black and white photograph of a young African man taped to the wall behind . So where is he, - is he dead, gone to seek his fortune in the city, will he ever return? And so she will just wait,[0x1].. that wonderful thing called [0x1]African Time[0x1].

This painting won first prize in the portrait section of an art competition. The black and white photograph, as well as the tape, are also painted.

About Barbi

Barbi Vandewalle

Having been born and brought up in Central Africa , I have always been humbled by the vast canvas and the infinite palette of hues, shades and colours that Mother Earth so reverently offers us. As much as the forever changing expansive skies, the never ending kaleidoscope of land and water, so too am I inspired by the fragility and expression of humankind, and it is all of these that form the basis of my subject material.

Although I have had no formal tuition, but have always been involved in artistic endeavors, I started concentrating on painting 12 years ago, under the mentor ship of Tim Johnson and Leonie Turck. I thank them for their love and patience and even more for believing in me.

I paint primarily for enjoyment, concentrating in watercolours and oils.I now have my own art group teaching watercolours to both beginners and those who are more experienced. My art has become my passion, and every day I am grateful for the experience and the peace that comes to me when I pick up my brush and watch the cohesion of magic and colour. I paint mainly on a commission basis and my work can be found throughout Southern Africa, as well as internationally as far as China, France London, and Australia.
