Market Place – Oil on Wood Dimensions: 30 cm x 30 cm x 1cm Medium: Oil Step into the rhythm of everyday life with Cornelie Wolff’s captivating oil on wood piece, Market Place . In bold, expressive brushstrokes, Wolff captures the heartbeat of community — figures in motion, women balancing baskets with effortless grace, and the quiet dignity of daily rituals. The painting radiates warmth through its vibrant palette: the glow of golden yellows, deep purples, earthy reds, and soft whites weaving together into a scene that feels both fleeting and timeless. Each blurred edge suggests movement, conversation, and the hum of life in a bustling market, while the textured surface of the wood brings a raw, organic depth to the work. This oil on wood piece is a celebration of culture, resilience, and the beauty found in ordinary moments. Perfect for collectors who appreciate expressive contemporary art with a soulful narrative, this piece brings energy, humanity, and storytelling into any space. Oil on Wood 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.
