He has had several group as well as solo exhibitions spanning his career thus far - all of which were met with enthusiasm and over the years, he has built up a loyal patronage and a good name for himself as an artist.
Danie’s point of view: ”Although pure art is a means unto itself, there is always room for an artist to materialise the dreams of another into a work of art, still reflecting his own unique style.”
