Portrait of the artist
The Artist

Painting as a way of listening.

I trained as a landscape painter and never quite left. Every canvas begins outside — with an early walk, a change in light, the memory of a horizon — and finishes in the studio, layer upon layer of oil built over weeks.

My work is grounded in a single conviction: that a painting made with time and honesty holds a room in a way no printed image can. I sign each piece on the reverse and issue a certificate of authenticity so it can travel with its story intact.

I paint six days a week in a converted studio in Cape Town, filled with north light, cold coffee and the sound of the sea. I ship worldwide, and I answer every email personally.
