Dove in Flight
SKU: CWA-109
Dove in Flight – Oil on Canvas Dimensions: 36 cm x 46 cm x 4 cm Medium: Oil Capture the breathtaking majesty of the air with Cornelie Wolff’s ‘Dove in Flight.’ This phenomenal oil on canvas piece freezes a moment of pure, dynamic motion, celebrating the untamed beauty and effortless grace of a bird against the vast sky. The atmosphere is one of serene, boundless freedom. The background is a soft, shifting wash of icy blue and muted turquoise, suggesting a high, cool sky. This calming backdrop beautifully emphasises the bird’s power and momentum, making the subject appear to glide forward directly into the viewer’s space. The dove’s keen eye and forward-thrusting body encapsulate a feeling of purposeful liberty. ‘Dove in Flight’ is a magnificent acquisition for those who admire nature rendered with intense realism and an expressive touch. This oil on canvas is a statement of freedom, strength, and the beautiful poetry of movement. Oil on Canvas Cornelie Wolff Approaching Art from a Different Angle This Johannesburg-based artist started as a pharmacist. After completing her Honours Degree in Psychology, she joined Helios to further her skills in Art Therapy. During this time, she fell in love with art, the process and the emotional power it yields. While raising her family, which consisted of three young children, she took part-time classes with Rika de Klerk and Willie Jacobs. She also attended workshops led by Koos Bronkhorst, Niel Moss, Willie Jacobs, Rentia Coetzee, Ruth Walters, Elize Bezuidenhout, Douw van Heerden, Charla Maarschalk, and Jennifer McChristian. Today, she practices what she preaches by creating her work under the motto: “With every painting I complete, I grow as a person and an artist.” My art is created from a place of wonder – it is my dream for every human to never completely lose the child inside them, because it is our ability to see wonder and magic in things. I use bold brushstrokes, contrast and an impressionistic approach to entice the viewer to create their own interpretation of the subject and become part of my world.
