MALACHI SMITH
Born 1948 - Eastern Cape, South Africa

Without doubt one of the most interesting characters in the South African art world whose light-hearted irreverence toward his imagery belies his strong application and talent for painting.

Educated at de la Salle College in the Eastern Cape, he really was only interested in becoming an artist. He regarded this as the only way he could compete with his very clever peers at school and thereafter. You see it was a mystery to them how anyone could hope to make a living from his own art.

To further his work, Malachi converted an old American motor home to become his permanent home as he travelled widely throughout Southern Africa studying first hand wild life and his beloved trees and rock outcrops – “koppies” – particularly around the veld in Mpumalanga and in Natal.

Most of the time Malachi works in mixed media since this gives him the range of artistic materials and techniques to try and capture what the Lord – the finest artist – has created in Nature. In between his application to his work, Malachi has found the time to foster a family of ten children to whom he is devoted as well as to their mothers!

Corporations and individuals throughout the world collect his very special originals.

In style and evocation, Malachi Smith is able to confine romance from a scene which, at first, appears far too photo realistic. A shimmering rock pool beckons at the heat of the day and just what is beyond those moss covered boulders. His bushveld African sunsets are a great joy to behold, as are his portrayal of the “umbrella trees” (Oribus Tortilus) the grand providers of shade and seeds in the open veld.
