More about me

Thank you for visiting my Internet site. As a passionate mother, wife, painter and human being I want to share my art with you.

I completed a B.A. Fine Arts degree at Stellenbosch, but draw my inspiration from the scenic beauty of Cape Town (South Africa) and its warm hearted people. 

My paintings simply portray the beauty, joy and peace of daily living.  It is characterized by my love for bold colour, texture and strong form.  In this I am inspired by the Post Impressionists like Van Gogh and the Fauvist, Matisse.

I love beautiful old houses and above all the sea! Moving to Simonstown in 2005 have inspired me to create paintings, portraying hope, and the fact that dreams can become reality!
