All paintings are oil on canvas and subjects are life size.
Artist Statement
Du Toit's artistic inspiration comes directly from her personal observations, experiences and feelings regarding the world we live in today. Her work is essentially about compassion, empathy and universal inter-connectedness; hence a recurring theme in her work concerns humankind's encroachment on Nature and how the environment we have created for ourselves impacts us and all other species to which we are inescapably linked, physically as well as emotionally. She often explores modern isolation and loneliness. 'Ultimately, I think it important to leave sufficient room for the viewer's own interpretation', she says.
