Beach Football Original oil painting 95 x 115

$2,850.00

The young Moroccan boys descended down from the cliffs, dressed in their football colours, as many colours as players, they played all morning on that hot December day, gradually the teams became larger as more players arrived. not a blade of grass but the sand made a perfect pitch for these boys from the South to do their thing. All this I observed from the rooftop of a coastal villa, soaking up the winter warmth and enthralled by the skill and determination of these boys, not a mobile in site, just in the moment in this beautiful corner of the world that I had the brief privelage to be part of that day.

The Tough Men of Cairo
from $70.00

Standing on a street corner in Cairo for the first time, I was stunned by the passing traffic of people. People here are tough, they carry heavy weights on their shoulders and heads or pull even heavier loads in push trollies and some simply carry the weight of life and their years on their shoulders, amongst them, a boy soon to be a man lends his hand. I wanted to show through these people that life is tough in this place, the burdens they carry in life are written in their body language, their countenance and their dress. A human drama, the theatre of life unfolding on a stage in Cairo.
