About "African Lion at Sunset" When I did the crouching Leopard, the pure power and brilliance of the big cats inspired me to paint an African Lion. Although the Lion is resting at sunset, it still have that aura of superiority, power and fearlesness. |

When I did a drawing in Grade 6, my teacher told me that I should never try to become an artist and gave me 0 out of 10 for my project. I never felt so humiliated in my life. I always had a desire to paint and started by drawing cartoon characters as a hobby. At the age of 14 I painted 5 commissioned art works for friends and next of kin, but became too busy attending to the demands of my professional life and family, wasting many years not touching a brush. In 2002 we moved to Cape Town and while being here for three months before my wife could join me, I decide to paint a wildlife scene as a present to her. She was so excited when I gave it to her and with her support I started painting again. Since then I have been painting on a constant basis. I love painting people and wildlife, though it is not the only subject I paint. I also do landscapes. I feel proud to present my work, bearing in mind that I had no formal training in art. Thank you for your support and God bless. Price Range US$ 47-1,288 Exhibitions None Education Matric People who chose Willem Lodewikus's work also chose work by: Find other:
