About Us
Masterful Artist: Idalet
Idalet, a prolific art creator from South Africa, had exhibitions in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Köln, Frankfurt, Berlin, München, Hamburg, Düsseldorf and Paris.
Large decorating companies and hotels invited her, this talented fine artist in South Africa, for solo exhibitions in Jordan, Bremen, Ibiza, Luxembourg and Köln. Rosenthal AG also requested her inspiring designs for the reproduction on their porcelain.
Hotel groups, large decorating firms and private collectors purchased her exceptional artistry from countries which included Germany, France, Italy, Portugal, America, England, Luxembourg, Egypt, Turkey, Russia and Spain.
T.V. programmes in South Africa and Germany also interviewed this skillful artisan.
This versatile creative genius mainly used Winsor and Newton acrylic paint for all her fine art. Winsor and Newton states that 96% of the colours in their Professional Watercolour range are 'permanent for artists' use' meaning the colours used will appear the same for generations to come.
At the age of 45 years, Idalet, a masterful artist, tragically and very unexpectantly, died due to a pulmonary embolism.
Less than 10% of these masterpieces are still available to purchase and a part of the proceeds and royalties is paid to Idalet's son.

Marketing and Design: Erica
Erica's direct involvement with Idalet's art started in the new millennium after buying her first two paintings from Idalet. Thereafter, she freely assisted Idalet with her national and international exhibitions. In 2003, Erica became involved with Idalet's art on a full time basis by setting up a home gallery, a picture framing business and a limited edition large format canvas printing business.
After continuous efforts over 13 years with different e-commerce platforms, she developed and published this e-commerce website. The biggest obstacles were listing in South African Rand together with different foreign currencies; conveying the scale differences of the artworks; and portraying the total extent of Idalet's exceptionally creative, artistic talent.
An e-book consisting of five volumes were published by Erica with a concise and insightful art analysis from 1985 to 2008.
An extensive range of blank and greeting cards were developed and printed. Erica also meticulously designed, crafted, photographed and listed in this online gift shop, a large range of memorabilia where she produced a replica of the original image.
