Loeritha Saayman is a mixed media artist who studied fine arts at UNISA. She was born and grew up in the Mpumulanga area. Inspiration to pursue a career in art came with her visits to art museums and galleries all over the world.

The unknown outcome of experimentation has always been a challenge for Loeritha and most works are done in mixed media where she combines traditional oil painting and drawing with contemporary digital processes. On the contrary, she still believes in the traditional mediums of painting and drawing and the uniqueness of a mark that is made by an individual. She often works with mundane objects, either placed in ambiguous settings or juxtaposed with other non-relevant objects.

Works are planned along a specific concept or theme and she uses the title of the work as a clue to the viewer who has to decode the work through symbols and metaphors.
