Keep investing in your childlike imagination is one of Herman's many quotes. He once traveled around the world as a technical photojournalist, nowadays he has been enjoying the beautiful, untouched nature in South Africa for almost 19 years now.
Herman finds inspiration in the same nature. The perfect photo in the early morning is just the beginning of his creative journey:
" I like to explore the possibilities and limits of digital art, I just let it flow to see where it can go, sometimes the end result appears quickly, sometimes the creative process takes months and other times the creation dies in its own beauty".
Some reviews:
“Wat T.T. Cloete in sy gedig sê is waar: ‘die aarde is deur een dichter gemaak’. Mensen soos Herman van Bon het die gare om dit dmv fotografie vast te lê …. Dankie!” - Awie van Wyk
“The Hieronymous Bosch of the digital era”. - Lizia Nieman (RIP), L’Art Niemaclature
“Absolute fantastic”. - Hettie Saayman
“In the Eye of the Beholder of Herman van Bon is a surprising and lovely image from South Africa” - Review of groups exhibition in LAC Los Angeles in LA-Times
“Herman van Bon has an amazing eye for capturing beauty”. - Kamalini Govender in Tales and Dreams (USA)
Weekend Greetings from the Winemakers
It’s not in the known wine guide books but in Napier there are a bunch of people creating world class wines of grapes growing in Klein Karoo and Napier terroirs. Production of around 8000 bottles per year distributed on a global scale to collectors.
Weekend Greetings from Marietjie
It will be busy this weekend in Baardskeerdersbos. (fresh market & art route)
