I was born and raised in Africa and have a passionate affinity with untamed vistas whether desert or sea. I define spaces through colour. Drawing on my emotional and
physical reaction to times, places, and events, I combine observation and personal feelings to create artworks that are filled with directness, immediacy, and vibrant energy. “For me drawing and painting is about the interaction between the discipline of observation and the spontaneity of mark making in terms of my physical and emotional response to the subject”.
