> STATEMENT

I live  in Gauteng, Johannesburg, South Africa with my husband and two teen-age children.  Although I am a qualified teacher, my career in the family business has been marketing.

 I have always had a passion for people from all walks of life and I enjoy showing it in my artwork.  Another  subject that inspires me is lovely places and landscapes.    

I decided in January 2008 to spend more time developing my art talent.

I enrolled at Creative Concepts School of Arts in June 2008, where I have been under the tuition of Norbert Schling. In the same year, I entered two fine art competitions, the first competition was a national competition, and the second competition was the "Inni-Oos Rand arts festival" .  I am greatful to say that I  won both the competitions.

This portfolio contains paintings with the themes of people and/or places. 

Thank you for taking the time to consider my portfolio.
