About

“Art is that in which the hand, the eye, and the heart of man come together.” Ruskin.

Buying art is not always easy, so finding the right piece at the right price is indeed a treasured find. Taste comes in many shapes and sizes, so wouldn’t it be great to be able to purchase affordable art on a variety of topics in all colours, styles and sizes imaginable that guarantees something for everyone.
About
After working for a prestigius law firm and thereafter as an air hostess for SAA, I turned my hand to art.
Together with a business partner, we previously had a travelling gallery styled ”Artsidein” which sourced artworks from some of the best artists in the Western Cape and KZN, sourced suitable venues and travelled to these destinations to exhibit their artworks.
After disbanding “Artsidein” I created “The Art Connection” and curated the Art Gallery at the prestigious 5 star hotel – “The Bay Hotel” in Camps Bay for 6 years. There I sourced artwork, liaised with artists and clients and arranged for artworks purchased to be couriered all over the world – Russia, Australia, America, England, Spain to name a few destinations.
In 2015 I opened an art gallery in Victoria Centre in Hout Bay whereafter I moved from the City Bowl in Cape Town to Stanford in the Overberg.
