SKU: CWA-037

Friendly Girl Oil Painting Dimensions: 400 mm x 400 mm x 40 mm Medium: Oil Wolff’s masterful brushwork brings this beautiful child to life with exquisite warmth and an astonishing depth of character. Those sparkling eyes, full of wonder and mischief, seem to follow you, while a gentle, captivating smile hints at a world of unspoken delight. The soft, textured curls frame a face alive with genuine emotion, and the simple white top highlights her pure, radiant spirit. The background, a serene wash of clear blue, provides the perfect stage for her infectious charm, making her personality truly pop! The true magic of ‘Friendly Girl’ original oil painting lies in its ability to evoke universal feelings of happiness and connection. It captures that precious moment of childhood wonder, reminding us of the simple joys and unfiltered expressions that make life so beautiful. It’s a timeless testament to innocence, beautifully rendered with a light touch and profound warmth. Oil Painting 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.
