Indian Lady by Liesel Botma

Indian Lady

Multimedia, 120x120cm. SOLD
This is one of my favourite works I used almost anything from old numberplates to used brushes. It has a Christian theme. Underneath layers of paint there is writing and words from the Bible mostly about GOD'S view of us and how much he loves us independent of who we are or where we came from.
Bravo!

Hi Liesel, I love your colors and the concept to paint on something which has already a (posive) message...the so "uploaded" energy is to be sensed, even when one not knows anything about the "background"....Good work!

Artist Statement
for Liesel Botma
Liesel BotmaI believe God gives us talent not only to better our lifestyles, but to truly serve a purpose and bring a message out in the world of hope, directions and love. All my work has a certain edge of something good I try to portray. I believe the world is so negative and pessimistic, that someone must divert their attention to what we ought to think about and run after with all our heart. Love you all, thank you for the great comments and directions. All the best and goodness for this year 2010.
