(c) Landscape

A charcoal composition depicting a rural waterside scene with boats, buildings, and natural elements arranged across a horizontal format. The artist employs linear perspective and tonal gradation to suggest depth, with mountains visible in the distance beneath a clouded sky. A windmill and modest structures anchor the composition, whilst boats occupy the foreground, creating a sense of working landscape activity. Botha’s charcoal work demonstrates his long-standing fascination with clouds and mountains, subjects that have animated his practice since childhood.
