The Artist attended various art schools and developed his very particular style once he felt that formal art is too limiting, restrictive and does not allow for his very expressive nature.

His very first Oil Painting was acquired by a law firm in the Cape in 1968 and was sold for the equivalent of US$ 10.00 at the time.
Since then he has done in excess of 1000 works that have found their way to all corners of the globe.

He re-located to Botswana in 1983 where he became renowned for his depiction of the unique Botswana landscape, Wildlife, rural scenes and activities.
He has over the past 40 years done numerous commissionings for corporations as well as private individuals, has supplied works to - amongst others - the following:
