Artists in Rosendal
Quite a couple of artists have made Rosendal their home and their work is on display at galleries in the town. |

DaHLa Hulme
The beauty of forsaken farm implements and countless things that are used up or discarded – inspires Dahla Hulme to capture something of the past and making it part of the present again. Read more.
Dahla's work can be viewed at Meerkatkolonie in Rosendal and at www.dahlahulme.co.za

Marinda du Toit
Du Toit gives a second chance to old kitchenalia, scrap wood and metal objects. She builds sculptures from found thing, resembling people we know. Sometimes serious, sometimes tongue-in-cheek, the characters are nostalgic, with a magic realism.
Du Toit has collaborated with Diek Grobler in making two animated films with her sculptures, 'Little bang' and 'Agenda', which won several awards nationally and internationally. Du Toit's Oil prints, etches, big or small sculptures, and copies of 'Agenda' are for sale at the Johanna Brand Studio & Gallery.

Willem Pretorius
Pretorius paints with oil on canvas. Quirky scenes of retired VW kombis set out to pasture in the veld; seasonal land scapes painted in and around the beautiful Rosendal; broken down old country homes with smashed windows and eager weeds. His work is can be amazingly detailed – sometimes with almost a sense of photorealism; or more abstract. Willem's work can be viewed at Skoppelmaai Gallery in Rosendal.

Wim Rautenbach
Spontaneous freedom and honesty is the feeling which is derived from Rautenbach's oil paintings. Light and form plays an important part in Rautenbach's creative process. The work is not not static and totally realistic, movement, light and atmosphere can be experienced. Paintings by Wim Rautenbach can be viewed at Stallery on the corner of Keyter and Van Niekerk Streets and on his web page at www.wimrautenbach.co.za.
