Life is full of new beginnings. Sometimes they’re small, like a new hobby or learning a new skill.
This website is a little new beginning for me – its a step towards taking myself more seriously as an artist and really focusing on showcasing the work I pour my heart into.
I recently started doing landscapes – as a wedding photographer I often just took photos of the surrounds because I was inspired by light and the colours of leaves and grass. The textures of old buildings and the hues of decay juxtaposed with a beautifully elegant wedding couple always grabbed my attention.
This new foray is a new beginning – a journey into exploring what has always made me stop and take a photo.
Welcome to the start of my new adventure.

At the top of the escarpment, looking down from the hills around Dullstroom, perches a farmhouse. The farm belongs to my parents, and the quiet is a balm for the soul. The view down the valley will never be done justice in a drawing, but this is a gentle reminder of this special place.
