When I was growing up, it was still during Apartheid, so the country was very shielded from the outside artistic world. Anything that was too subversive was basically banned. All the music that we got from outside of South Africa was the poppiest, least subversive music that you could get.

You may be surprised to know that growing up, I wanted to be a writer of children's books.

The moment you're too apologetic about something and people know that something isn't finished, they listen/look for the mistakes or cracks, but if you act like it's done people experience things in a totally different way.

I believe that people have to be sensitized more about the many jobs an individual can branch out to after studying an art form.

I find that I have done a pretty good job of fusing all three of them so far and I intend to get better at my craft. This is the reason why I am always eager to learn new stuff, especially from those who are more experienced than me. I am like a sponge. My ultimate goal is to open an animation studio in St. Lucia.

An opened mind will eventually lead to a more well rounded artist and this will thus heightenen his or her level of professionalism.

I was constantly drawing and colouring. I had an immense love for art and anything which involved art fascinated me.
