Born in Port Elizabeth , Eastern Cape, South Africa. I attended school at Westring Primary. I matriculated at the Agricultural high school Marlow. At school I enjoyed drawing and would always get a gold star. That’s where it all started. I've been doing art ever since. After school I had to got do my two years army training at 1 SAI in Bloemfontein. 6 Months in Bloemfontein then we were transferred to 61 mech in South West Africa . Ended up in the middle of Angola . But that’s another story. After the army I got work in a little town called Patensie. Now I have retired and am doing art full time. I also do a lot of poetry and short stories, on any topic under the sun. I have my special places in the wild I go to. That’s where I paint and write . I do a wide variety of styles, my own styles. I love doing abstract and anything. Buildings and houses, farms and towers, rivers and flowers, water and tree, it all pleases you and me . So take a look and see and you'll be happy just like me.
