First Step, Ethiopia. Mixed Media on Canvas. 2-meter x 1-meter
Exhibited as part of the Eyes on Africa Exhibition in both Windhoek, Namibia and Pt Augusta, South Australia.
Inspired by my travels through Africa, and Lao Tzu: First Step.
“A Journey of a Thousand Miles, starts with the First Step” Lao Tzu.
“I am staying in a traditional house, this has positives and of course negatives as well. The concept of solitude or privacy is a totally incomprehensible notion! Trying to draw or paint in the streets only last about five minutes, until I am discovered, and have to start the same conversation over and over. What is my name? where am I from? What am I doing? Could I pay that woman, because I drew her? I answer very politely but firmly. I do NOT pay for drawings. Photographs are a different matter. I “sneak” most photographs from the colourful women as they walk away from me, their burka’s flapping in the wind.”
