I am a fine artist working in mixed media .I am equally fascinated by organic interconnected patterns and figurative art. I love the patterns that have a rhythm and expression which while distinctly recognisable, are never predictable.

I am fortunate to spend half the year in London and the other half in Johannesburg,South Africa. I am moved by the multicultural presence on the streets of both these cities, and sometimes paint distinct images of people and their lives in one location and other times I unite the images- in this way I feel close to that humanity.

I feel privileged to have studied under tutors including Bill Ainslie, Linda Ballen, Mike Wald, Gregory Kerr, Wilma Shein ,Ricky Burnett. Hermann Niebuhr and Tracy Wittelson

London has opened up opportunities to continuously develop my art practice, including attending Summer School at the Slade School of Art for several years.
