ARTISTS STATEMENT

Visionary artist healer and Interfaith Minister. My art, painting and poetry and my study of mysticism has been a gateway into a greater understanding
of myself and a glimpse into a greater reality that we so seldom take time to explore. I am a refugee from South Africa having taken a stand against apartheid
in the late 1970's. I have spent the last twenty years in England involved in campaigns for justice, community work with children, healing and painting.
I am a self-taught artist. I have an enormous love for people and the planet. Iconstantly seek evidence of the presence od the Divine in everything around me. I believe
that beauty and creativity heal the heart, mind and soul in a way which no other medicine or therapy can. I have managed to overcome numerous emotional challenges
in my life and hope that my art will prove an inspiration to all those who wish to take on life's challenges. May my art be a source of consolation, peace and strength to all.
