This painting was inspired by a photo that I found in the National Geographic of January 2011 taken by Robin Hammond. It’s a gold miner in the border province of Manica. The area draws lots of workers from neighbouring Zimbabwe, who pan for traces of precious metal in Turbin water. I just love how at peace and happy he looks. It’s just incredible that mud can be so beautiful. I really enjoyed working on this painting.

Self Reflection
By Sofia
Often I try to self-reflect which turns into waves of rings around me. This picture reflects my days in general; life is static, surrounded by waves around.

Beyond the Steel Mesh
By Anonymous
The cage stands bold, with its steel-clad mesh. For within its grip, it’s us it holds. Ten foot walls, of cold creme concrete. For outside we muster, like horses in stalls.
