I matriculated from Bishops, Rondebosch in 1968 and with a diploma in graphic design from the Cape College for Advanced Technical Education spent a year as a set painter for CAPAB. Thereafter I have been a full-time artist, having my first one-man show in 1975 at the Goodman-Wolman Gallery, Cape Town. My 30+ shows since have primarily been in the Cape : the Atlantic Gallery, Cape Gallery, Irma Stern Art Museum and Gowlett Gallery amongst others.

A resident of Fish Hoek these last thirty years, my paintings are included in the following collections: Iziko [ S.A.National Gallery, Cape Town ], Pretoria Art Museum, William Humphrey’s Art Gallery, Kimberley, King George 6 Gallery, Port Elizabeth, Pietersburg Art Gallery, University of the Orange Free State, Tuynhuys, Sasol, Sanlam, Telkom, and BoE.
