I am an old soul, collector and lover of all things old. I am inspired by the old masters, Toulouse Lautrec and Antonio Mancini. I paint the paintings that I want to hang on my walls which I cannot find in galleries. In 2020 I started work on a range of 12 almost life sized oil paintings called “Beyond the Veil”. Each painting features a single powerful woman who is not afraid to own her power and sexuality. Beyond the veil hints at marriage, independence, the single woman and life after death. The paintings exude a strong nostalgic, mystical feel born out of my fascination and curiosity with life after death and the past.
I love painting portraits, landscapes and am also venturing into some abstract art my mediums are oils, pastels and charcoal I love experimenting and exploring different techniques which helps to enrich and grow my style
In 2022, I opened a gallery in a gorgeous historic building in the winelands in Franschhoek, Cape Town. This experience has been hugely enriching in so many ways. My paintings are selling very well and people seem to love my old world, old master style. The gallery will close temporarily at the end of April to be renovated.
As a child I spent all my free time creating art. Sadly I gave it up in my teens and only resumed about 10 years ago. I however was in a creative industry for many years designing my own range of nightwear in Cape Town and following that I had my own web design company in London.
