Born in South Africa, Dylan is a leading artist of the generation that emerged in the wake of apartheid. Since childhood, he has treasured every moment of drawing, around his home, and even at school; he was constantly drawing as a way to express his emotions. Dylan studied at a formal graphic design establishment. There he absorbed the acute attention to form associated with visual design. After qualifying, he worked as a freelancer, and only later in the year 2000, he started teaching himself the fine art of oil painting. After many years of painting and refining his skills, he decided to start selling his art. Subsequently, he enrolled in the Spier Arts Academy, where he discovered his unique artistic articulation. The lectures at Spier motivated him to realize his authentic aptitude. The realization that his artworks are note-worthy further strengthened his resolve to become a professional fine artist and he focused on pursuing his dream of becoming an internationally renowned professional artist.
He is also a keen supporter of benevolent altruism, furthermore, his altruistic nature extends to fervently supporting various charitable organizations. Renowned for his mastery in capturing the essence of exquisite femininity and characterized by an unwavering commitment to perfection in his illustrations, his oeuvre has found its place within the realms of galleries, comic books, NFT's, private art collections around the world earning him a well-deserved spot in the limelight.
"What Inspires Him"
Art has played a major role in his life and it has transformed and liberated his spirit, he has always felt this void deep down inside him, and no matter what, he always comes back to art, it is the one constant thing in his life that he is highly committed to! Most of his inspiration comes from all things natural; the mood of an environment and the figures in that environment. He enjoys creating sensual nudes and loves to show the inner emotions of people, places, and animals and that is why his figures have an essential spiritual sense, sometimes even abstract. He reveres the moments of inspirational reflection when his artwork takes on a life of its own. The Divine moves him as he glimpses the indescribable, a window into another existence. It is as if he receives acumen from a Divine Source and the result is an image that emanates and vibrates with emotion making a deep connection with a resonating soul, spreading enlightenment and love through his artistic works.
