I am a Visual Artist from Johannesburg, South Africa, who is experienced in various forms of Visual Art making and mediums. I have a Bachelors Degree in Multimedia and Visual Art and I am currently on course to complete my Honors Degree. I have extensive Sales Experience in multiple fields such as Finance and Real Estate. I want to build a long successful Career in the Art Industry and have experience with Gallery Operations through my studies at the University of South Africa. I am truly passionate about art and have been running an Art Print Business since 2018, however I want to grow in a space whereby I can create a platform for emerging artists to show their work around the world.
