In his own words: "On a winter's day in 1984, photography and I met quite by accident, an encounter that redirected my life and changed it forever." He had known since school that he was an artist, but was steered towards a more stable path first. The camera brought him back.
Today his work spans painting, mixed media and photography, often in the same piece. It hangs in Osner Gallery in Hout Bay and in homes and collections around the world.
