Harmony in diversity
"Doing what you love is the cornerstone of abundance in your life" - Wayne Dyer
I am a South African Artist currently living in Bangkok, Thailand. I work with diverse mediums in diverse forms. My work is loaded with rich color and form influenced by my diverse background. I lived and worked in Africa, Ukraine, Russia, Scandinavia (Sweden) and Asia. I was trained in Linguistics, Music and Art in South Africa with added courses in Art in Thailand, Russia, China and Ukraine. The Scandinavian love for design through minimalism and simplicity, added a dimension of peacefulness within my otherwise abundant use of colour and form. My work as an Artist and Teacher of Art in International Schools in Ukraine, Russia and China as well as Africa left me with a real "harmony in diversity" background having worked with students from over 60 different nationalities. I also have a working history in set design and experiment mainly with the nature of aesthetics of surroundings and visual knowledge. I had duo exhibitions during October and November 2009 in Bangkok, Thailand.

Where I find my inspiration...
“Wonder at it all... Be the child who’s dreams won’t ever fade... shout and storm the barricades... look for the dirty streets with just one flower... be a seed that lands inside the cracks..seek the sun and it shines back...”
(Mary Chapin Carpenter)
