Ex adman, now full time painter of contemporary portraits and nudes. I run a busy loft style studio in Salt River Cape Town where I paint and also teach drawing and painting.
I like to help artists out of their comfort zones and help them to find their own handwriting in their art.
I am currently busy on a series of contemporary portraits of interesting and positive African people that I meet through my studio.
Some of these portraits now hang in private collections in New York, London, Paris, Munich and Berlin. I am aiming to have an exhibition in Berlin later this year.
