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.

The tectonic folds and geological rhythmic contortions so beautifully revealed in the Swartberg pass echo the multiple movements characteristic of the symphony music form. The graphic dynamism of this work evolved out of contemplating the very essence of the forces that give rise to such a geological phenomenon. In geological times the fast and slow movements are clearly not as evident as experienced listening to the movement’s characteristic of the symphony. Altogether an unfinished ‘form’ in relation to one’s own time, but in musical terms timeless, of lasting inspirational power – beyond the lifetime of the composer.
