I am a 49 years old South African painter. I started my career at 40 and am mainly self-taught. Colour, magic and passion are part of my work. |
| About the Artist | |
Symbolism has a great role in my work. I challenge the viewer to question and think. Life is not easy for anyone, but through my art I try and find hope or at least just something positive to hold onto; both for myself and the viewer. I am a thinker - life inspires me. The "magical"side to my work makes even children enjoy it. |
