As a painter, draftsman, designer and photographer, Shaun Herron’s need to create overrides expectation. The artist, who hails from Cape Town, but has resided for many years in Amsterdam, has received several awards for his pieces. Though he describes himself as a traditional artist who works in old-fashioned mediums, his art shows the diversity of his style and varies from esoteric, surrealist, impressionist and abstract. He finds freedom in abstract paintings, while also enjoying the meticulous attention to detail in his realistic depictions. Herron creates using oils and pencil.
