About "Dam Cloudy Trees"

The warmth and cheerfulness of his landscapes , coastal and street scenes are true to Louis vibrant personality and nature is evident in his liberal use of colors. He loves painting at home in his studio where Louis prefers to use images more as reference points. Louis has the ability to give his impression of an area or scene without even referencing a picture. Very few artists can approach a blank canvas with such creative style. This impressionistic technique allows him to paint from the eyes of his soul and maybe this is why there is such emotion in his work. Louis mostly works with professional oils on stretched canvas but when his art needs to be sent all over the world, it is rolled and shipped in a postal tube.

For more than 30 years he has had many exhibitions in South Africa.Louis Pretorius is married to Emmie and since 1990 resides in Melkbosstrand.
Louis has always found soul food in being creative - especially painting, which inspiration was strengthened when he spent some time to tour Europe and the Greek islands. Spending time in the museums and art galleries contributed to this ambition. He loves painting landscapes and is concerned with Man's abuse of Our World, so endeavours to capture the beauty of nature through his paintings. "Art is the best way to escape without leaving home...."
Louis insight and passion for art is evident in his unique artworks which bring warmth, depth and beauty into a room.
