Chris is an exciting self-taught artist from the Western Cape and spends his days by enhancing his unique style known as 55+1 “Only Me”
55+1″Only Me” is the theme Chris uses to describe his unique style which he applies to intensify the quality and value of his art.
He works with a scraper and very rarely uses a paintbrush. This method, plus the application of mainly black, white and gray, makes Chris’s work something to be seen.
Ricolet was born in the Roman Catholic Hospital in Windhoek on the 4th of August 1969. She grew up in Mariental, the semi-desert part of Namibia, where she spent her carefree childhood on a little farm.
From a very young age Ricolet absolutely loved doing pencil sketches, and especially doing sketches of faces.
An older sibling taught her the technique of using shadows when sketching and so a new world opened to this little girl.
At present, Ricolet works in acrylic on canvas and the emotions, light and shadows inspire her. Whenever memories take her back to her beloved Namibia and her family, who still lives there, you will find her in front of her easel – pouring out her love and empathy for people on canvas.
