Hannpan.com: Johann van Heerden's Art

Rehab Art. Bipolar Art. Recovery Art. Hope for still suffering guys in Pretoria Artist in South Africa Hannpan’ s unusual name goes back to his childhood and a dear grandfather who gave him this pet name. Hannpan soon became the name all those close to him called him affectionately. (A few of us know that his real name is Johann van Heerden.) He is inspired by people and the true miracle of life. He has a deep love for Africa and South Africa specifically. He is close to nature and is always in awe of the majesty and beauty of the South African landscapes and our unique cloud formations. He has never had any formal training in art; in many respects he opposes the concept. He has a deep respect for all the great impressionists and expressionists and finds their work and skills inspiring. Hannpan’ s unique style of bold colours and brushstrokes has the ability to capture the eye and imagination of his audience. His style has been described as naïve, impressionistic, expressionistic – but he does not view his work as such. For Hannpan it’s all about passion. “The work I do is never an accurate depiction of a specific place or time, it’s rather an image in the mind inspired by events, words and emotions.” He is a very spiritual person, who respects all creativity because he feels that one cannot be creative if you don’t experience some form of spiritual connection. “One faces the future with one’s past,” he believes. His first years were spent in the small town of Parys in the Free State, on the banks of the Vaal River. He had a rather difficult childhood, but overcame immense difficulties. Later in life he had a long struggle with addiction and recovery – something that is very close to his heart and he is still constantly reaching out to those who are caught in the clutches of disabling addiction. It was during his recovery process that he discovered his artistic talent. His art gave him the solace where healing could begin. ONLY ONE OF EACH OF THESE PAINTINGS EXIST IN THE WORLD.THEY ARE IDEAS FROM MY THOUGHTS AND EMOTIONS . I REFUSE TO MAKE COPIES OR PRINTS OF ANY. ">
