Biography
I was born on the 22nd June 1969. As a child I have always taken solitude within my drawings therefore art has become a very important part of my life. I took up a correspondence course in Art which lasted for two years.

I feel that someone has to be the voice these surroundings and therefore take it upon myself to express this need through my art.
