BBDF: Betty Bowker Dwight Fund - Original Watercolour Paintings

Betty Bowker Dwight, illustrator of our Rondebosch Common Book, passed away in 2015 at the age of 91. In honour of Betty, a non-profit organisation was set up in her name to raise funds towards the maintenance, preservation and restoration of the flora and fauna as well as to promote the cultural history of the Rondebosch Common.

After her death, the executor of her will asked the Friends if we would be willing to take all of Betty’s artwork of the Common and her photographs. 

We still have many of Betty’s original paintings which we sell to raise funds for the work of BBDF. These are very reasonably priced depending on the condition and size. Some of her small A5 paintings (starting from R50) make lovely cards which can be used for any occasion.

There are also a few small paintings of the neighbourhood which may interest some of you who live in Rosebank.
