From a Woman's soul....




through a Woman's eyes by a Woman's hands......


On a recent trip to Knysna ,Emma and I walked into an Art Gallery we had not seen before.There were a series of interleading rooms and in the last one I found 2 artworks that left me spellbound.They were quite the most beautiful portraits of women I have seen in a long time.The works are huge and only 2 ,side by side filled the wallspace.


We stayed, breathing in the beauty created by Candace Charlton ,the artist.




Candace Charlton (Dutch/South African, B. 1968) was born and grew up in South Africa. She studied Fine Art at Rhodes University, majoring in Sculpture and History of Art. In 1998 she held her first solo exhibition. In 2000 she moved to Europe and lives and works in The Netherlands and in Italy.


Emma and I want to own one,each.....maybe one day....
