HEAD ON DESIGN - ORIGINAL PAINTED HEADS

Drawing on her inspiration from the African bush, Joanna Orr of Head on Design has added her own twist and flavour to the traditional trophy heads, sending a clear message to the trophy hunters out there that we can celebrate these majestic beasts differently.

Joanna also collaborates with Cape Town artist, Sharon Boonzaier, to create beautiful hand-painted sculptures. For the past 6 years, Sharon has been painting African-inspired themes such as 'Savanna Plains', 'Carmine Bee-Eaters' and 'Fynbos Fiesta' on the kudu, lion, rhino, and elephant heads, all finished in gold leaf.

Each sculpture she paints is unique, no one piece is ever the same. Gold leaf is creativity applied by fellow artist, Sibulelo Ngozi.

The sculptures are flat-packed with great care, white gloves are supplied in each box so that they can be reassembled by their new owner. Inside each box, you'll find a story about the artist and the designer.

Head On Design is represented by The Artists Gallery in Cape Town.
