The 2 butterflies represent the hermetic principle of reflecting the above (idea) as realized in the below (daily reality) in this work, which can be understood as the collective unconsciousness of the times.

Each period in history is characterized by a time-spirit or Zeit-Geist.
In our time the new possibility of collapsing time and space has resulted in immediate accessibility and dialogue, creating a global village and the age of information. The internet and its aligned new technologies have created a new focus on our connectivity.

This could be represented in the butterflies, a newly realized potential of immediacy. The other option is to just enjoy the designs of the more nebulous and focused representations of the unconscious collective and its realized potential.

I was born and raised in The Netherlands soon after world-war two by two different families as my mother died when I was five years old. I arrived in Cape Town, alone, at the age of 17 in the middle of the sixties, straight out of High School. I am still living here!

Most of my life I have taught children at both preprimary and preparatory level, which included a lot of arts and crafts. I developed creative moving toys with woodwork equipment and machinery with adults and disadvantaged youth over the years, much of it painted and with simple mechanical movements. I spent a year at Emerson College, (Sussex, U.K.) in 1974 learning woodwork and doing watercolor painting amongst other things.

I am, since 1996, teaching yoga in my own home-studio. In 2013 I started “carte-blanche” a design business using local African fabrics with the objective of creating work for local seamstresses and artisans. This came to an end with the Pandemic in early 2020. In 2016 I wrote and illustrated my own children’s story: “The little Lemon Tree that stood.”

After a lifetime of teaching others arts and crafts the Pandemic afforded me the opportunity to clear my “carte-blanche” studio and get back to my own artistic endeavours. I started with pencils (as I had designed bright blank cards and note-books in colourful pencil designs for “carte-blanche)”. It was a natural extension and new as I had done wood carving in the past.
