About

I am based in Cape Town, South Africa and run my own boutique marketing and design agency, Digital Niche. While I have many interests and hobbies, most of my free time is spent adventuring outdoors or painting.

I have a close relationship with the ocean and the mountains of South Africa and Cape Town, where I alternate my time on land and on our 36ft sailboat, Pluto. Living alongside nature is a privilege and I feel very fortunate to be so close to what gives me so much inspiration.

Creativity has always been part of my who I am, but coffee art found me almost by accident during COVID. It all started on a sailboat during lockdown.

My goal was to do a small painting every day, for 21 days. To keep it simple, I used what I had - my morning coffee as paint and sometimes wine or other teas. These tiny coffee paintings received attention on social media, with others joining in, forming a tight community of artists.

It turned into much more than I could ever have imagined - an online auction, wine labels, various commission work and lots of special stories linking many people around the globe.

Thank you to everyone who has been a part of the journey.
