About this Item
Notes
Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity from the artist.
"Instinctive insights grow like a spiritual DNA and thus you gain identity constantly striving against the restrictions of the mould - the mould of pre-conceived ideas, like a chrysalis one emerges as a butterfly. The quest continues to improve with age embracing oneness of man." -Anton Smit
