Laetitia Viljoen
PRETORIA, GAUTENG
Laetitia's international experience, transformed her into an artist balancing five project currencies – time, money, knowledge, advice and aesthetic appeal.
MessageWell known for her exquisite decorative art in South African 5-star hotels, entertainment venues, guest houses, embassies, restaurants and private residences, she established her decorative paint techniques and fine art business in 1992. Her training courses attracted students from as far as Europe, the USA, Israel and Australia while she also presented her popular courses in South Africa and other Africa countries.
For more than 30 years, Laetitia has combined her creativity, thorough knowledge of interior styles, technical expertise and skill to transform ordinary and dull spaces into exquisite and vibrant environments by focussing on the individual needs, requirements and design of each project.
Highly recognised by architects, interior decorators and contractors, she has completed several exclusive art commissions for corporates and private clients and her signature is seen in Michelangelo Towers in Sandton, The Palace at Lost City, Castello in Waterkloof, Villas, Religious Institutions and Embassies.
One of her most majestic works was purchased by the Blue Lizard Art Gallery in Perth Australia. Her latest art work was done for the reception area of the new development at Trilogy Menlyn Maine residences and Capital Hotel, Menlyn, Pretoria where two large gilded oil paintings feature on the focus walls.
Her art changes the ordinary and the old into extraordinary vivacious appeal. She understands the elegance of simplicity but also specializes in the opulence of gold leaf abundance. Whether she creates mega size hand painted wallscapes or exquisite gilded chandeliers, she always transforms the space she is commissioned to change.
