He has painted and etched full time since 2006.

His paintings are mostly Eastern Cape and Karoo landscapes, exploring the structure, colours and textures as well as the marks of man on the land.

His etchings explore anecdote, history, social comment and satire, through the use of line and strong tone. Small editions of prints, usually 20, are made.

His work is mostly in private collections, but also some public collections.
