Born
in 1975, Phillip Steyn grew up in Mafikeng where his father
worked in the
legal office of the then president of Bophuthatstwana.
Phillip was exposed at an early age to the culture of the indigenous
Tswana people. In time his interest in African heritage, and
self
taught skills merge to give us unique ethnic portrait art.
A quality and style of art that is fresh and provoking, these
paintings grace the homes of
many satisfied customers across the globe. The work speaks of
the character and beauty of the African tribes dressed in traditional
regalia. The depth of emotion,
the expression of colour, the texture and allure of the creations
are delightful.
Works
in acrylic on canvas exquisitely portrayed, reveal a technique
never
seen before. Viewers often remark
on this evoking use of texture and
ask how its achieved. Phillip simply
replies "An artist's style is as
personalized as his signature."
No doubt the result of a decade
of brush milage this 'master of
his medium' keeps
his unique method of painting to
himself but shares his art with all.
These contemporary works each
comes with detailed information about
the ethnic tribe being represented,
the story of each portrait evokes conversation.
