I had a mat and frame looking for a picture. The colours were very suited to a Nguni, so this is the one I chose and painted:
Nguni 50
Watercolour
230 x 195
And here it is in its frame:

About Me
- Erna
- KwaZulu Natal, South Africa
- I am an African girl. I love the African sun and I love painting scenes of Africa. I love the wide open spaces of Africa, its warmth and its variety. Lately my attention has been drawn to the beautiful and varied skin colour patterns of the indigenous Nguni cattle of Southern Africa. Join me in my African adventure as I find and paint more Nguni, birds and people of Africa. ALL MY ART IS FOR SALE. Feel free to contact me at ewade@absamail.co.za to check on availability or prices.

Andrew Wyeth (Watercolour Artist): The Creative Process
"I dream a lot. I do more painting when I'm not painting. It's in the subconscious."
Renoir about Painting Flowers
"I just let my brain rest when I paint flowers" - Renoir
Ingmar Berman about Creativity
"Art lost its basic creative drive the moment it was separated from worship. It severed an umbilical cord and now lives its own sterile life, generating and degenerating itself. In former days the artist remained unknown and his work was to the glory of God."
Ludwig von Beethoven about Creativity:
"I change many things, discard others, and try again and again until I am satisfied. Then, in my head, I begin to elaborate the work in its breadth, its narrowness, its height, its depth... I hear and see the image in front of me from every angle, as if it had been cast, and only the labour of writing it down remains."
