About Erica
My entire career spanning over four decades has been in concentrated in art and teaching. As a professional artist, with decades of teaching experience, I offer my students a wealth of knowledge and develop their skills so they can flourish as artists.
I have achieved measurable success as a professional oil painter and I was merited amongst South Africa's top artists by South African Society of Artists in 1997.
As a private art teacher, I have taught extra curricular classes to students helping them to prepare for examinations, both practical and art history, with greatly improved results.
Art has forever been my passion and I endeavour to enthuse my students with a deeper understanding and appreciation for art.
