Artists of Walker Bay Modern Art.

One of my greatest inspirations is the human face. I have long been fascinated by people’s faces, which I feel expresses their identity. I started painting my favourite movie characters and celebrities in this newly discovered style, using only grayscale at first. This was the start of my career as a professional artist.
Over the years, I continued to push and challenge myself as an artist. I started working with full colour, doing larger pieces that would connect with the viewer differently, and doing artistic nudes. I experimented with other materials and different tools to create new techniques.
Eventually, I found a new tool that could deliver strokes resembling those of a palette knife. It was then that my unique style emerged and has carried through into my artworks going forward. This resulted in my signature style that incorporates expressive, realistic, abstract, and design elements in my work.
