Art found me at a young age, but it is my love of languages that saw me through school and university.

I started painting in 1994 when I was abroad on a Scholarship (La Reunion Island) and I bought a book (in French!) about l'Aquarelle (watercolour) painting. Drawing/sketching was with me long before then. I grew up in Bonteheuwel, a 'rough' neighbourhood in Cape Town.

Currently I live in Fish Hoek, Cape Town, Republic of South Africa. All artworks are for sale on this site, some of the originals have been sold or donated however, they can be printed on canvas or paper for a smaller cost than the original.
