Born in South Africa, but followed my heart to America and am now living and working in Yorkville, IL, USA.
I embraced art as an adult, enrolling in my first art class at age 29 and completed my art education at the Open Window Art Academy in Pretoria, South Africa, under some of the best and well known artists on the South African art scene.
I put my dream of pursuing art on hold, and instead had a successful career in corporate marketing. Now, twenty years later, I am finally doing what I love and enjoy most.
