Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
This painting revisits the theme of a older work, titled the Backseat Driver - depicting a woman, brimming with furious energy and power, yet relegated to the backseat, from whence she attempts to exercise some authority - wearing equine blinkers and military medals. In this current work, she has tempered the fury, harnessed the energy, calmly subjected herself to the realities of motherhood and caring for family and elderly - all the while, holding sway on her backseat, wearing her biggest boots with her bluest stockings.

United Kingdom
I am a figurative oil painter with work in collections throughout South Africa as well as in Chile, Germany and the United Kingdom. I am originally from Cape Town, South Africa - where I Completed a Fine Art Honours Degree and have been painting professionally since 1999 after many years working as a cabinet maker, running my own design and manufacturing business. After three successful solo shows and regular participation in group shows, competitions and art events, I moved to the United Kingdom with My family in 2009. I have taken part in various group shows in Berkshire while creating a body of work for my first solo show in England. In 2016 I was chosen to participate in Sky Portrait Artist of the Year, which aired in spring 2017 on Sky Arts. I entered again in 2019 and went quite a bit further than the first heat - this will air in 2020 on Sky and Channel 4. I continue to exhibit in Open Studio/Arts Trail events and groups, and although these events are wonderful in terms of local exposure and a valuable and encouraging way to engage with the public about my painting, I am hoping to be accepted into an appropriate gallery with a wider audience.
