ABOUT THE ARTIST:
The Artist attended various art schools in his teens and developed his very particular style once he felt that formal art is too limiting, restrictive and does not allow for his very expressive nature. Dane started painting in 1967 and 46 years on his works are still unique and popular. His very first Oil Painting was acquired by a law firm in the Cape in 1968 and was sold for the equivalent of USD 10.00 at the time.
Since then he has done in excess of 4000 works that have found their way to all corners of the globe.
He re-located to Botswana in 1983 where he became renowned for his depiction of the unique Botswana landscape, Wildlife, rural scenes and activities.
After 25 years in Botswana the Artist has now re-located back to South Africa and now works from his Studio in the Eastern Cape.
