What is this arttile going to do for me?

Your visitors will be flabbergasted by the WOW factor!
The unexpectedness of the actual tile’s design and the contrasting brushwork create a ceramic tile that is appealing, provocative and never seen before! The variety of textures and the restrained use of colour and brushwork will enhance any environment.
These arttiles with their natural organic lines, interesting textures and natural green tones will be the talking point of many a conversation in your office or home. These arttiles will be the envy of many a friend or colleague and you can be sure that it will enhance your interior  making it one of a kind!
The use of these “earthy” arttiles will reflect your environmental consciousness and blend this trait into your green architectural environment!
The contrast between the glossy glaze and the earthy matt clay textures will blend with whatever material you wish to combine it with. These artistically rich tiles by Gerrit Oosthuizen will integrate with ease if used in a green architectural environment, and I hope to land a substantial commission for a project like this at some future time.

If you use these arttiles as an insert or with other customized tiles from Southern Art Ceramics you can be sure that it will revive and refresh any of your treasured environments.

Do you have any special notes regarding these tiles?

Some of these arttiles might have unglazed areas as part of the design. These tiles are fired to stoneware temperatures and are extremely durable and will be around for generations to come!

I like the freshness of the tiles and am sure that every time you look at them you will feel rejuvenated and energized just like I did when unpacking them from the kilns for the first time.

Artist statement:

I commence by surrounding myself with several tools and lot of clay, what follows is quick and enjoyable but exhausting at the same time with decision making  fast and instinctive.The clay will be shaped and my interaction with the object infront of me becomes one of shear joy ...  I achieve a certain oneness with the object and  the results astounds me as I proceed creating more and more till I reach a point of burnout and a desire to find something new!
