About • Biography
"Sculptor of light on canvas" I opened a gallery in Barrydale on Route 62 in the western cape in January 2025. I have been painting, drawing and illustrating my whole life, first illustrations published when i was 17 years old. Worked in the advertising industry for 25 years, lectured at Ruth Prowse dchool of art for 4 years and did workshops at Rhodes University, but owned various businesses inbetween, from surf shops, catering businesses to organic spice factories! I am a full time professiobal artist since 2019 when i had my first exhibition at the Winchester Hotel in Cape Town. Besides running my gallery, I run portraiture and other art workshops. My art is unique, in that i mix flourescent paint into traditional style paintings - so the sun literally lights up in my work. It happened accidentally, and i kept quiet about it for many years until my agent, Gavin Huart encouraged me to showcase it. Thankfully, people took to it, and he sold over 70 of my paintings last year.
