About "Ganyana"
I have had the privilege of sitting for many hours with these enchanting animals, their aesthetic alone is enough to entrance
the eye of any artist. It is fitting that they are sometimes called the African painted dog as it is impossible to resist trying
to capture them through art. Wild dogs have an intricate social structure, acting as a family, they are led by a matriarch
and are one of the most successful predators in the bush. Patience and respect may be rewarded as the group eventually
begins to accept your presence, and you find yourself an honorary, albeit temporary, member of their pack

About Astley
Africa is not a subject I discovered -- it is the landscape I grew up
listening to.
My work centres on baobabs and other enduring trees of the
Zimbabwean wilderness. These forms stand at a scale beyond the
human. Marked by seasons, drought, fire and the passage of
elephants, they carry visible records of time.
I am drawn to their presence -- not as symbols, but as living
structures that have witnessed generations before us and will
likely remain long after. In their stillness there is a sense of
continuity that shifts one's perspective.
Painting allows me to slow that encounter. It invites silence. My
intention is to create work that encourages a deeper breath -- a
moment in which the viewer feels both small and quietly
connected to something older and enduring.
Each piece is grounded in lived experience of the Zimbabwean
bush, where endurance is not metaphor but reality.
