I’m so looking forward to teaching these workshops in May, focusing on my rekindled passion for charcoal! Only a few places left, so, if you’re living in or near my hometown of Hermanus, and would like to join me, please contact me via DM.

These are beautiful Janet. A visit to Prince Albert looks like a good idea

How lovely.

I am sitting on the couch in my living room, looking at some works in progress... deciding what to do next. These are still in the beginning stages. I am working on many paintings simultaneously... oil paint takes time to dry! My next art exhibition will be on 2 and 3 December in Welgemeend, Cape Town. These works will be ready for the show.😊🎨👩‍🎨

Such wonderful inspiring work

Would love to see this portrait in reality.

Portrait Award 2021 - In celebration of it's fifth competition year, we have introduced a second and third monetary prize. We would like to thank The Rupert Art Foundation for backing this initiative and sponsoring these two awards, as well as the first prize.

The Rupert Art Foundation Second Prize Winner Ashley Ogilvy ( ) initially trained as a graphic designer and worked at several design studios and advertising agencies. Curiosity and a desire to paint and draw was ever present and a move to Cape Town opened the possibility of taking up a fine art education. She honed her drawing skills by making several thousand drawings of the Cape Philharmonic orchestra during weekly rehearsals over several years as well as committing a lifelong practice of figure drawing.

After gaining an art education in SA, Ogilvy later trained and studied in studios and ateliers abroad (including USA, UK, Italy and Morocco). Ashley placed in the Portrait Award Top 40 in previous years due to her technical prowess and intimate painterly style. Her 2021 entry, titled 'Lena Awaits the Day', is a uniquely atmospheric and romanticized rendering of an elderly women, oft forgotten and dismissed by a sometimes unfairly ageist society.

Congratulations Ashley!

Not great for game viewing but the sight of fresh green grass shoots sprouting was too good to be true. And my favorite green rock was shimmering! Size: 34 x 30cm. Acrylic on paper.
