Maritime Art & Portraits

I've been painting since childhood, but full-time since 2001. Having served in the South African Navy for 26 years, there is a strong Maritime emphasis in my work. I paint ships and the sea, as well as portraits. Many of these are of Naval Officers, commissioned as gifts or farewell commemorations.

But there's more! I love interesting buildings and the way people interact with them, so there are some of those too. I've also started a new project deconstructing food & fruit, to keep a smile on my face.

I live and paint in Fish Hoek, near Cape Town in South Africa. I teach small art groups 3 days a week and paint most other days. Life doesn't get much better!
