three distinct hummingbirds in mid-flight, their delicate forms suspended in a moment of pure energy. The artist’s masterful use of oil paints brings the iridescent feathers to life, with shimmering greens, blues, and coppers catching the light. The birds’ rapid wing beats are suggested through blurred strokes, giving a sense of motion and grace.

Each canvas can be displayed individually or as a triptych to create a captivating focal point in any room. “Hummingbirds” is a perfect piece for any nature lover or art collector who appreciates vibrant, detailed, and emotionally engaging art.

Cornelie Wolff Approaching Art from a Different Angle

This Johannesburg-based artist started as a pharmacist.  After completing her Honours Degree in Psychology, she joined Helios to further her skills in Art Therapy.   During this time, she fell in love with art, the process and the emotional power it yields.

While raising her family, which consisted of three young children, she took part-time classes with Rika de Klerk and Willie Jacobs.  She also attended workshops led by Koos Bronkhorst, Niel Moss, Willie Jacobs, Rentia Coetzee, Ruth Walters, Elize Bezuidenhout, Douw van Heerden, Charla Maarschalk, and Jennifer McChristian.

Today, she practices what she preaches by creating her work under the motto: “With every painting I complete, I grow as a person and an artist.”

My art is created from a place of wonder – it is my dream for every human to never completely lose the child inside them, because it is our ability to see wonder and magic in things.  I use bold brushstrokes, contrast and an impressionistic approach to entice the viewer to create their own interpretation of the subject and become part of my world.
