The Magaliesberg Mountain range, one of the oldest in the world, stretches for about 120 kilometers between Pretoria and Rustenburg in South Africa. Formed over 2 billion years ago, this ancient range is rich in both natural beauty and geological significance. Its rugged cliffs, deep valleys, and rolling hills are home to a diverse array of plant and animal life, including indigenous trees, bird species, and small mammals.
The Magaliesberg offers numerous outdoor activities, including hiking, rock climbing, and bird watching, as well as scenic drives with breathtaking views of the surrounding plains. Historically, the range holds deep cultural significance. It was the site of early human settlement, with archaeological finds in the Sterkfontein Caves, part of the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site, which date back to some of the earliest hominids.
Today, the Magaliesberg is a popular getaway destination, blending natural splendor, adventure, and history, making it an attractive spot for nature lovers and history enthusiasts alike.

About Artist
About Artist
From a young age, Frances Wedepohl, a South African artist with roots in Johannesburg, developed a profound love for art and creativity.
Her fascination with vibrant colours, shapes, and textures was evident as she used every available canvas for her artistic expression.
Her admiration for JH Pierneef's work, discovered on a special day, became a lasting source of inspiration. Pierneef's influence is discernible in her art, as she finds affinity in his play of light, balanced compositions, and serene landscapes.
Painting is Frances' solace, a realm of tranquillity where the world falls silent, except for the sounds of her cherished 70s music collection. The experience is intense, serene, and cathartic.
Her work is a reflection of her travels and dreams, primarily inspired by the South African landscape, with its characteristic sun, soil, heat, and sky.
With a background in architectural draughting, akin to Pierneef, Frances' artistic style is characterised by precise brushwork, intricate details, and a strong focus on lines, colours, and shapes, often using a limited palette of oils. Her art encompasses landscapes, figures, forests, portraits, and vibrant street scenes, where she experiments with a vivid array of acrylic colours.
