Olivia

Visual Artist

I’m an expressive mixed media artist based in South Africa, working primarily in portraiture. My work celebrates the nature and uniqueness of individuals. I try to capture the personal essence of each person I draw. I have been creating art for as long as I can remember. While I often explore controversial themes, I’m mostly drawn to the challenge of revealing people’s personalities through expression. I received the Dirkie Offringstrofee for Eisteddfod in matric and hold a Higher Certificate in Drawing from Stellenbosch Academy, where i developed my technical foundation while finding my own expressive voice. I am now a second-year student at Stellenbosch University, studying Fine Art.
