MY CREATIVE STORY : The BEGINNING
I recall spending countless happy hours transforming colouring-in books as a child.
I didn’t only colour outside the lines but also filled the entire page!
Drawing, dancing, singing, creating plays and performing in them with cousins and being a magician’s assistant at birthday parties.
I loved to escape with a stack of vinyl records and admire the artwork draped on their covers, in the eighties and nineties, absorbing all their rich details. Each cover revealed a unique experience: an exciting concoction of imagery, language and emotions to muse on.
Sketching original fashion designs was another creative pursuit; and as a teenager…begging my Mom to sew them up for me! Later completing a qualification in Clothing Design and Production and spending a few years working in that industry in South Africa.
