Artist of the week: Apolis Beginsel
APOLIS BEGINSEL and his ARTWORK-a brief history Apolis was born and raised in Calitzdorp, a small town situated on the R62, and part of the Little
Karoo. He began to draw and paint when he was seven years of age, and it has been a long walk to
become established as a recognized as southern cape and South Africa artist.
Originally he sold his work on the streets of George, Mossel bay, Knysna, Wilderness, Calitzdorp and
Cape Town. Eight years ago his work came to the attention of Prof.L Strydom, owner of the Strydom
Gallery, Riaan Bosch, and Hilton Nel, all international artists from South Africa. Recognizing his
latent skill they encouraged him to further develop his work by taking courses, and to keep his work
as original and unique as it was at that point.
The courses that he was able to attend paid dividends, and he was soon exhibiting his work at the Blue
Door Gallery, Zebra Gallery and the Calitzdorp Cellar in Calitzdorp, the Strydom Gallery in George,
Kalk bay Modern Gallery in Kalk Bay, and at the KKNK (the Klein Karoo Nasionale Kunstefees).
Apolis has also been featured on national TV, on national news, MooiLoop program, tourism and
paints, and the medium he uses. While portraits are a strong point, his subjects range from the
environment to daily object. Apolis says, "I paint locals from Calitzdorp, what they do, eat, their
houses, their lifestyles. They are my people. I use oil paint, acrylic paint, water paint, pastel and
pencil, using scrap metal, wood, hardboard, and canvas. My favorite colours are green, blue, purple
and orange. I love my art and any portraits order is welcome.

Calitzdorp
Calitzdorp is a town on the Western side of the Klein Karoo in the Western Cape Province of South Africa and lies on South Africa's Route 62.
The farm, on which Calitzdorp stands, was granted to JJ and MC Calitz in 1831. In 1924 a railway line was opened, in 1937 electrification and a
new cement road to Oudtshoorn was completed. The Swartberg (in the North), Rooiberge (to the South) and the Mountains of the Huisrivier Pass
(to the West) surrounds Calitzdorp’s challenging landscape with floods, droughts and extreme weather, from very hot to snow clad mountaintops in
the winter. Summers are very hot during the day, mainly a dry heat, up to 40 °C. Wind from the sea every afternoon allows for moderate, cool
evenings. Winters have sunny days, very cold nights with occasional frost and snow often falling on the surrounding Swartberg Mountain Range.
Rainfall is approximately 200 mm per year, often with the changing of seasons. Prevailing winds are mainly from the south in summer and hot wind
from the North in August. Calitzdorp is a haven for enthusiasts of fishing, bird-watching, 4×4 and other scenic routes, horse-riding and wine tasting.
Calitzdorp is renowned as a centre of the port wine industry in South Africa with several major wine estates famous for their award-winning
products. A Winter Festival takes place in the town in mid-June each year.
