Welcome
to my website!
I
paint in a number of genres. Although principally known
for my wildlife work, I enjoy painting landscapes. Portraiture
has recently become my main interest.
In
my wildlife studies, and paintings of the peoples of Africa,
I strive to capture a fugitive moment, seeking always
to suggest rather than describe. I often use a vignetting
technique as I enjoy reminding the viewer that the painting
is an artefact.
The
challenge is to move further and further away from a photographic
representation to a more creative interpretation of the
subject.
My
watercolours are in private collections in the USA, Australia,
Europe and the UK.

Classes
I
run painting classes in watercolour and acrylic throughout
the year. My classes are held at my studio in Muldersdrift
(see Map) and I am able to accommodate
beginners and more advanced participants.
Classes
are available from Jan - Nov - more information HERE
