Dear Hazel,
You understand perfectly, ...but then you are one of Bryce Courtney's former compatriots. His writing deepened in me a passion for issues and a love of landscapes of southern Africa, overflowing from compassion for the peoples of that land.
When you come to Australia, you must return home with some special piece of this realm: an item of significant indigenous artwork and a signed print of a landscape photograph... some representations of here that almost bring tears to your eyes or awe in your spirit.
One of southern Africa's artists whose work I love, is Alice Haigh. Her family story is a highly significant one, and her art is deeply expressive of her heritage. We became friends as we lived and taught in the same neighbourhood in North Parramatta, and after I had acquired one of her pieces of work and inquired after the artist for I could see some elements of very powerful significance in that work. On this occasion I wasn't wrong.
Through Alice another thread in my bond with your realm has been created.

Dear Hazel,
It is my turn for "Oh my goodness". Because your are a Seth Efrican you get extra special permission to turn this into a watercolour for South African colours and light are the same as Australia's. It was that similarity that struck me when I first visited Transvaal. The geological forms and colours were so familiar, yet the landscape was new. The rocky areas of Transvaal reminded me of this Macdonnell Ranges area of central Australia.
And you can use this on your desk top for it will not only colour your world, but be a constant reminder of our friendship and a lure that may just bring you and Sarel to this part of the world, one day, while you are still young. travellers.
You may decide to edit out or to include the small group of tourists beneath the tree, either way, one of them is Margaret. One day one of them may be Hazel.
I guess having it on your desktop and beside your easel makes for a YS! Thank you once again, for I am delighted that you share my taste and love of beauty.
With gratitude,
Ian
