"Freedom of Movement" Fine Art Print

I was born in Pretoria, South Africa. After completing my schooling, I went on to study at Pretoria Art College where I majored in Fine Art and Commercial Art. I was fortunate enough to study painting under the guidance of Robert Hodgins, a renowned South African artist, which left an indelible impression on me whilst fuelling my life long interest in the arts. After completing Art College, my working career was spent in Advertising as a Creative Director. My family and I made the move to the UK in 2014 where I have been actively expanding on my style and working on creating a large collection of pieces. More recently my works, both paintings and sculptures, are reflections of my avid interest in unusual forms - from the organic plant world and by distorting the human figure. My early influences are Francis Bacon, Willem de Kooning and sculptures by Moore and Armitage. South African influences have been Jane Alexander and William Kentridge.
