The African Portrait Art Gallery
The African Portrait Art Gallery represents works by two Cape Town artists, Mekhala van der Schyff and Grant Oxche. Both specialize in portraiture using oil on canvas and mixed media techniques. These artists capture the diversity of the continent's people, attempting to portray not only their visual appearance and beauty but also their emotions and personalities. The gallery is an ideal stop for avid art lovers, as well as casual tourists looking to purchase distinctive artworks as gifts or souvenirs.
