“Chasing the Sun" 24x18cm, oil on canvas panel. Plein air study. Painted this quick study en route to the Cederberg, capturing the morning light. Plein air is always a challenge, but today I battled a swarm of midges too—plucking nearly 60 of them off the canvas with tweezers! It’s "Blomtyd" (flower season) in the Cederberg right now, and the vibrant blooms make it an absolute must-visit. 🌸 #PleinAir #PleinAirPainting #painting #art #impressionism #Cederberg #Blomtyd #OilPainting #NatureInspired #landscapepainting #boskloof #artstr

Portrait study of @john_a_carrasco – Thank you for the beautiful reference! 24 x 30cm Oil on canvas panel. My focus was on capturing the beautiful soft emotion while keeping skin tones light. Emotion always inspires me and connects me with the subject. #Art #Portrait #PortraitPainting #OilPainting #contemporaryart #expressivearts #representationalpainting #representationalart #sophs_art
