Born in South Africa 1951. Studied Fine Arts Painting at the Pretoria Art School. Graduated and started his career working for his mentor, Hans Potgieter, South African Kinetic Artist for nearly a year, until a job as Art Director in a local feature film became available. Three months later joined the SABC TV and did a BBC TV training course for 9 months, learning all aspects of television, cameras, sound, editing. Seven years of editing and started directing documentaries and TV commercials. Always painting when possible as the hours in TV were long and hard.
