My cartographic artworks celebrate places, not just coordinates. Special places are memory, longing, and sometimes more: an identity, or a home.

The landscape shown in this artwork
Johannesburg, Pretoria, the Vaal Triangle and the wider Gauteng city-region form the dense centre of the map. The Witwatersrand ridge and its urban corridor are legible within a much larger plateau landscape, with routes spreading west across the Highveld to Klerksdorp, east to Middelburg, north toward Polokwane and south towards Bloemfontein.
Rivers, reservoirs, ridges and transport corridors show how the metropolitan core connects to the surrounding plateau, revealing the Highveld as a broad geographic system rather than a single city map, including distinctive landforms such as the Vredefort Dome and Pilanesberg. The extents reach as far as Welkom, Rustenburg, Thabazimbi, Harrismith and Standerton.
How the cartography is composed
A composed cartographic artwork — terrain, contours, hydrology, settlement and typography brought into a single visual hierarchy. The detail rewards close looking; the composition rewards the daily glance.
How it’s printed
Offered in two editions. Precision Edition is printed on Epson Enhanced Matte (190 gsm): a bright-white, ultra-smooth matte paper selected for exceptional detail, a refined glare-free finish, and clear reproduction of terrain shading, contour lines and typography. Gallery Edition is printed on Standard Canvas (360 gsm): a durable canvas selected for large-scale statement pieces, with a subtle surface texture and richer physical presence at flagship size. Standard Canvas works include approximately 8 cm of additional canvas allowance on all sides, making them suitable for local stretching after delivery. Artwork is reproduced faithfully at full resolution; never redrawn, regenerated or simplified.
