Sandi “Yaffa” Esterhuizen’s Art For Aberdeen
“Yaffa”, as Sandi was known in Aberdeen, sadly passed away this year leaving an exquisite collection of art. It is now to be exhibited and sold in her memory. A percentage of the proceeds of the sale will be donated to local animal protection group. Yaffa was known for her love and devotion to her pets, of which she had a variety. There were her two lovable Labradors, Dante and Honey, her little bird with beautiful green feathers, Gabbi, as well as Sammy the parrot, who now chats and strolls his way around the Art’s Café in Aberdeen, enjoying the company of all the diners.
Yaffa’s art is unique metalwork which she started creating in 2002. The pure silver-coated arum lilies were her specialty. She featured these as large classic wall hangings, lamps, and as tall ornamental structures. These are all truly beautiful and glow under the lights.
