About "Plitvicke Lakes, Croatia"

I recently visited Croatia and took a trip to this World Heritage Site, a series of brilliant green and turquoise lakes and foaming white water falls. The water was so clear you could see the fish swimming in the lakes. When I completed the painting I had to convince my audience that the lakes really were that colour!

About Angela Mary

Light excites me, especially shining through trees, on water and even on fur. I love to travel and see the world through the eyes of the old Masters, particularly the Impressionists.I try and capture that "special place" where the heart can rest for a while, away from the turbulence of our world.
Being a keen musician ( piano and clarinet, and saxophones in various orchestras and groups) I feel I can appreciate the nuances and musical "notes" when the eye travels over the scene I am painting.
I started painting after I retired from Industry, and the best thing I did was to join the Watercolour Society of South Africa, where I made many wonderful friends and I gained my Associate of the Watercolour Society in 2004. I then switched to acrylics, as the speed of execution of each painting and the bright colours appealed to my impatient nature. I currently paint with the Ivy Artists- a group of ex students of Sue Kemp, who have become firm friends and enthusiastic producers of artworks.

Price Range

US$ 65-345

Exhibitions

Taken part in many exhibitions at the Watercolour Society of South Africa from 1998-2004,including a solo exhibition. Also part of the (then) Tiley Gallery in Clarens (2000-2005). More recently my art can be viewed at my Home Gallery at Waterfall Hills, and through several exhibitions with the Ivy Artists around Johannesburg.

Education

Watercolours with Sue Kemp, and then self taught in acrylics.
