“I work with watercolour in small adventures
to create memories of our yearning
to return to the Garden”

The GREAT Namib Adventure – in Watercolour

dudes

I took a trip around Namibia with my mate Hans in his new van in April this year
As soon as we were out of the Orange River valley we pulled over for a snack
and to enjoy the Namibian sunshine

Since then I have been turning photos into Watercolours
