"I step into the painting or the four blue horses. I am not even surprised that I can do this. One of the horses walks toward me. His blue nose noses me lightly. I put my arm over his blue mane, not holding on, just commingling. He allows me my pleasure. Franz Marc died a young man, shrapnel in his brain. I would rather die than try to explain to the blue horses what war is. They would either faint in horror, or simply find it impossible to believe. I do not know how to thank you, Franz Marc. Maybe our world will grow kinder eventually. Maybe the desire to make something beautiful is the piece of God that is inside each of us. Now all four horses have come closer, are bending their faces toward me as if they have secrets to tell. I don’t expect them to speak, and they don’t. If being so beautiful isn’t enough, what could they possibly say?” - Franz Marc’s Blue Horses - a poem by Mary Oliver

South Africa
I’m a South African painter inspired by my very deep connection to Mother Nature and her inhabitants, who have always provided me with a sense of belonging, safety and acceptance. I work predominantly in the traditional medium of oil paint on linen and canvas. I sell my work internationally through my profile on Saatchi Art and am privileged to have been featured in various collections. I live in the Western Cape of South Africa. Artist's Statement: "Rather than painting what I see, I aim to paint what I feel; my deep connection to Mother Nature and all her inhabitants."
