Collection: Local Artists: Wikus Hattingh

Born in Namibia and proudly South African, this artist now lives with his wife on the scenic West Coast—a place he considers ideal for finding inspiration. Surrounded by natural beauty and coastal charm, he draws creative energy from his surroundings to fuel his artistic process. He works with watercolour, acrylic, and oil paints, though his preferred medium is watercolour for its fluidity and subtlety. What began as a hobby has evolved into a full-time passion since his retirement. Each new piece is approached as a personal challenge, an opportunity to push creative boundaries and grow.
