Fly Artist

Ronel Koen

South Africans are typically very good at rugby and flattening opponents and vowels.

In these unimportant respects Ronel is untypical.

Her paintings are also extraordinary, the result of her odd persona-mix of insecure perfectionist, wildly talented realist and quirky free-thinker.

Ronel’s Fly Artworks could be the product of a cross between a top-end Leica camera and Salvador Dali.

But they’re not.

The three of her did them.
