Derric van Rensburg South African, b. 1952

Cape Town-born, Internationally acclaimed impressionist painter, Derric van Rensburg has a signature style that is free, yet subtly contained, combining both abstract and realistic elements.

 

Broad brush strokes and visual intensity, combined with an ingenious impressionist flair, captures the true aesthetic essence of the landscapes that Derric paints. His carefree use of bright primary colours such as blues, oranges, reds and greens portray natural landscapes filled with fauna and flora that are both colourful and alive. Van Rensburg’s favourite subject matter includes vineyards of the Hex River Valley, the Winelands of Stellenbosch, Paarl, Worcester and Robertson.
