Wilhelm Saayman (b. 1962) is a South African self-taught artist living and working in Johannesburg. He usually works with drawings and watercolours, with a distinctive style of naïve line, playful colour, and scrawling text. With a sense of humor and irony, Saayman explores urban existence, masculinity, and personal relations. The drawings are often character-driven and narrative, reminiscent of storyboards and graphic novels.
