Her love for art was her motivation and teacher…also the beautiful artworks of people like Irman Henkel, Christian and S.A. artist Nice and many others was of great inspiration. Passionately she started to produce many, many paintings which she sold at the solo exhibitions she held monthly all over South Africa. Her biggest piece is an oil painting in the entrance of Montana hospital Pretoria 2meter by 3 meter. The theme: “never lose your joy, whatever happens in life
”Laughter and joy is ever present in Annatjie’s life and work. For this reason she likes to produce informal pieces reflecting humorous and light-hearted moments, captured with a few quick brush strokes and bright colour.
