Misty Lion's Head
Cape Town is iconically known for her Table Mountain and as much as the table is a mountain of note, abundant with magnificent fauna and flora and the most magnificent hiking trails, there’s something special about Lion’s Head.
I look at the little pokey outcrop from all different angles around Cape Town and the sight of it always makes my heart expand.
This painting was inspired by a magnificent sunrise hike I went on one morning. A thick mist had crept in from the ocean at Camps Bay and was spilling into the city over Kloof Nek. It was so thick that lion’s Head had disappeared completely. I was walking up the edge of Table Mountain and all I could see was white mist.
I was watching the ground as I hiked up the trail and when I looked up, suddenly Lion’s Head had appeared out of the mist. The sunrise had painted the clouds all kinds of dreamy colours like a misty mother-of-pearl.
