Original watercolour by the late Richard Rennie (1932 - 2017) one of S.A's top artists. Richard Rernnie was the gentle master of his craft and lived for art. He took part in many exhibitions throughout South Africa and in his later years decided to settle in Clarens, Free State, where he opened his own gallery. Richard pioneered the Sunnyside Guest Farm Art Escape which for the past 30 years has been a popular retreat for artists of all genres and ability.
He was the main attraction and gave vibrant demonstrations - many artists tried to be in front of the queue trying to glean any morsel of information they could get. Whenever he was asked what colour he was using from his seemingly complicated and often messy palette, he would simply reply that he didn't have a clue.
Richard's vibrant ability to capture the right moods, particularly the Free State and surrounds, which he loved, was and will probably always be unmatched in watercolour and he will remain the envy of every budding watercolourist who puts paint to paper in an effort too emulate his easy, natural style.
Lately, Richard found that his passion for oils was re-ignited and his modernist interpretation of the Free State landscapes in oil paint, proved to be extremely popular.
