ACCESSORIES Roses Gold Hoop Earrings Tjhoko Champs Runner up – Charlotte Kleynhans - Tjhoko Paint
Got a boring wall that needs something extra? Take a look at what our Tjhoko Champs runner up 2019 Charlotte Kleynhans did to solve this problem.
I grew up with an Iron Woman as Mom. From childhood, I learned that as a woman, I can achieve anything. No matter how big or small the task, you grab it by the horns and wrestle it through. She did not think twice to build, break or paint a wall soon. She is unknowingly my inspiration from an early age. The love for paint, make beautiful and create runs through our veins.
The day I decided to enter the first Tjhoko Champs competition, I faced a very big challenge. But I remembered what my Grandpa taught me: "with all your heart" ... and I grabbed it by the horns and put heart and soul into it.
I knew I wanted to create something that could carry a message and remind me of that message every time I walked past it. So I decided to paint a wall. What else would be big enough to make a proper impact? My feeling was always "old" and "new", something that is in contrast to each other. I always thought of old, yellow and mottled wallpaper that was halfway off, and underneath it was always the nice, deep and rich colours. Little did I realize that I was depicting people around and in our everyday lives.
We as humans tend to look past others that look yellow, stained and uninteresting. And we don't bother going to the old wallpaper because it just might not matter to us. But if we can take some time and stand by those who push society aside ... we find out that they have the most beautiful golden hearts and sincere personalities that can enrich our lives! And also the other way around, so many people look pretty and bright from the outside, and stand out above the rest.
If we look at them closely and pull down the shiny ... we see the yellow and mottled wallpaper on the inside. So yes, my wall provides me with a life lesson every day I walk past him. Stand still and spend time on what you may not think is important, you may just be surprised by what you find!
Ek het groot geword met ñ Ystervrou as Ma. Van kleintyd af het ek geleer dat ek as vrou enige iets kan vermag! Maak nie saak hoe groot of klein die taak nie, jy pak dit by die horings en stoei dit deur! Sy het nie 2 keer gedink om te bou, te breek of sommer gou ñ muur te verf nie! En was sy onwetend al van vroeg af my inspirasie! Die liefde vir verf, mooi maak en skep loop sterk deur ons are!
Die dag toe ek besluit het om in te skryf vir die eerste Tjhoko Champs kompetisie, het ek voor ñ baie groot uitdaging te staan gekom! Maar ek het onthou wat my Oupa my geleer het: "met jou hele hart"... en ek het dit by die horings beetgekry en hart en siel ingesit!
Ek het geweet ek wil iets skep wat ñ boodskap kan dra en wat my aan daardie boodskap kan herinner elke keer wat ek daar verby loop. Ek het toe besluit om ñ muur te verf! Wat anders sou groot genoeg wees om ñ behoorlike impak te maak?
My gevoel was heeltyd "oud" en "nuut", iets wat in kontras is met mekaar.
En ek het heeltyd gedink aan ou, geel en gevlekte muurpapier wat halfpad afgetrek was, en onder dit was nog heeltyd die mooi, diep en ryk kleure!
Min het ek besef dat ek besig was om mense om en in ons alledaagse lewe uit te beeld.
Ons as mens is so geneig om verby ander te kyk wat geel, gevlek en oninteressant lyk. En ons doen nie die moeite om aan die ou muurpapier te gaan trek nie, want dit is dalk net nie vir ons belangrik nie. Maar as ons wel ñ tydjie kan vat en stilstaan by dié wat die samelewing eenkant toe skuif...kom ons agter dat hulle die mooiste goue harte en opregte persoonlikhede het wat ons lewens kan verryk!
Het jy 'n vervelige muur wat iets ekstra nodig het? Kyk wat ons Tjhoko Champs naaswenner in 2019 Charlotte Kleynhans gedoen het om hierdie probleem op te los.
En ook anders om, so baie mense lyk van buite af mooi en blink, en staan uit bo die res. En as ons hul van nader bekyk en die blink aftrek...sien ons die geel en gevlekte muurpapier aan die binnekant! So ja, my muur verskaf elke dag wat ek verby hom loop, aan my ñ lewensles!
Staan stil en spandeer tyd aan dit wat jy dalk nie dink is belangrik nie, jy mag dalk net verbaas wees met wat jy vind!
