ART HOUSE
Studio / G a l l e r y

I would love to introduce myself and my cat Sheldon while showing you my Gallery and Studio.

I studied Fine Art majoring in Oil Painting under the leadership of Jack Lugg in South Africa. Jack was an avant-garde artist who encouraged experimentation and self discovery in his students. In 1950 he won a scholarship to study in France and for a year worked under the guidance of Henry Matisse.

Henry Matisse said, “I don’t paint things, I paint the difference between things.”

Much Love Di

Sir Sheldon
