Deirdre Harris

As an artist, I am inspired by the light, mood, texture and colours one finds in nature. I paint in oils and acrylics, and work with both brushes and palette knives. I predominantly paint landscapes but also enjoy exploring the lines and shapes of flowers. My landscapes often include a pathway which draws the viewer into the scene, where I try and capture the presence of being connected with the landscape. I have lived in KwaZulu Natal, Gauteng and now the Cape, which has afforded me the opportunity to paint different aspects of our beautiful country
