Near the Airport in Beeshoek, 10km outside of Postmasburg
Our time in the small town of Postmasburg, in the Northern Cape of South Africa, sadly came to an end on the 3rd of October 2011 when my husband's tenure
on the mine came to completion. We are officially back into the busy
lifestyle that big city life brings. It's good to be back in a way, and
in other ways not. I find myself yearning for the khakibos, the flat open
veld landscape and big blue sky. Also the spaciousness of the house we were staying in. We have certainly down-sized in the space of our
living quarters. The balcony has now become my art studio! It is not
easy, but the Bible verse of 1 Timothy 6:6 "Now godliness with
contentment is great gain" is convicting. In this new season of
our lives, we will continue to strive towards godliness and holiness.
I'm excited to see what the next painting / artwork will come out like.
May God be glorified in it all!

Talking
about God being glorified, I would like to make you aware of this
awesome organisation that is making a large impact of the youth in
George, South Africa. Their name is Realstart and you can view their
website at: http://realstart.org/. In an effort
to support them and their ministry to the youth who are in great need, I
will be donating 30% of all future sales of my paintings to Realstart.
