'Fire and Fury' - Sannette Boshoff

Dimensions: 70 x 90 cm (27.6 x 35.4 inches)

Medium: Mixed media on canvas

Exuding a formidable and raw intensity, 'Fire and Fury' is a striking original mixed media painting by the contemporary artist Sannette Boshoff. Boshoff, who is the wife of artist Dawie Fourie and paints under her maiden name, delivers a powerful statement piece through this textured portrait of a Cape Buffalo. The canvas measures 70 cm (Height) x 90 cm (Width).

The composition is dominated by the close-up, front-facing visage of the buffalo, its massive bosses and weathered features rendered with a tangible, tactile quality. Boshoff’s mastery of mixed media on canvas is evident in the heavy impasto and layering that give the animal’s hide and horns a rugged, three-dimensional feel. The subject is set against a dual-toned background where a fiery, saturated red on the left collides with deep, atmospheric blues and teals on the right, perfectly echoing the title's theme of elemental power.

The artist employs a bold palette to highlight the buffalo's piercing gaze and the subtle glints of light on its wet muzzle, capturing the unpredictable nature of one of Africa’s most respected "Big Five" animals. This exceptional Sannette Boshoff mixed media painting is a premier example of contemporary South African wildlife art, perfect for collectors who appreciate expressive texture, bold colour, and the untamed spirit of the wild.
