Having spent a career in the broader visual/conceptual realm, I continue exploring and discovering new connections through image making on an ‘freeform,’ intuitive, as well as on a commissioned basis. My work therefore ranges from representative subject matter to symbolism and abstract paintings. I am currently exploring the perception of time via geological phenomena, San myths, cosmology, and their rock art.

I have exhibited through numerous galleries including EverardRead, Cape Gallery, Artvark, Prince Albert gallery, Cape palette and online. I recently held a private exhibition at my studio featuring mark making explorations of Namibia’s time worn Urongo mountain area. During this two-day event, 13 of my 25 works sold – to local as well as international buyers.

I host creative sessions at my studio in Hoekwil addressing conceptual/mark making and expanded awareness and expression. I draw, paint/exhibit work in pencil, charcoal, watercolour, pastel oils, and acrylics.

I feel art making is an ongoing process of expanded sense of being.
