Sailing to the Sunset of the South Africa Sea.
Painting Class Taught by Artist Clina Polloni.
This beautiful sunset is based on a painting by Lea De Vries Daniels, an abstract artist that painted her beloved South Africa. Lea signed her work as Lea DeV and her art can be found in many medical institutions and private homes.
This version of the painting has been designed for the painting classes, is a simple and charming seascape painting for a person that is starting to paint and wants to learn to paint a colorful sunset with a sailing boat.
