About
​​​I grew up in South Africa and have always enjoyed painting, drawing, and being creative.
I attended art and design school and have worked as a graphic designer for 18 years.
​​
I am a painter working primarily in oils and gouache. My practice focuses on figurative and botanical subjects, often incorporating flowers, plants, animals, smoke, and water. I use contrast—through colour, form, and subject matter—to create compositions that invite both visual interest and quiet contemplation.
​
Storytelling and symbolism are central to my work. By placing meaningful elements together, I explore themes of memory, transformation, and healing. My paintings often carry a sense of softness and mystery, with a dreamlike quality that reflects my ongoing exploration of personal experience. Recent works are rooted in spiritual and emotional healing, transforming lived experience into beauty.
