Artistic background

I have studied art and design at Parktown Colloege and the AAA School of Advertising then obtained a diploma. After working as a professional graphic designer in companies such as KSDP Design Group, Bates International, 8seconds Branding & Design and others I started my own aerosol art, ideas consultancy and graphic design group called Mzantsi Street Exhibit. We have since produced work for clients like BBC TV, MTV, SABC, various Governmental Departments and the Alliance Francais to name a few.

My dream collaboration

I would love to collaborate with the pioneers in Aerosol Art from New York and Europe in producing murals and gallery artworks of different kinds, canvasses, prints and illustrations
