As an artist deeply inspired by my African heritage, my creative journey is shaped by my experiences growing up in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, and living in Durban and Cape Town, South Africa, before relocating to the United States in the late 1970s. After a fulfilling career in the hotel industry, I retired to Daytona Beach, FL, where I now dedicate my time to my passion for stained glass and painting and have advocated for children in the foster care system as a Guardian ad Litem for over 11 years.

My wife, Rebekah, and I have embarked on incredible safari adventures across Africa, capturing the beauty of its wildlife in our stained glass and acrylic artwork. Each piece is a reflection of the majestic animals and breathtaking landscapes that continue to inspire us.

At Sawubona Art Works and Stained Glass, we offer:
