Born in Johannesburg in 1948, Greg went to the Johannesburg School of Art, where his main interests were illustration, sculpture and photography. He then moved to London, where he worked in a design studio for almost two years. It was here that he was introduced to the beauty and meaning of Realism and the love of detail.

He then worked in Boston, Massachusetts as a member of a team developing the potential of multimedia. Whilst in the States, Greg began his training in psychotherapy and he has been practicing in this field for the past 30 years.

This love of people flows freely between his Human Development work and his art, and it has encouraged him to delve deeper and deeper into himself and his subjects to illuminate the dignity of the human spirit. He predominantly draws women because he recognizes that they are the custodians of all that makes us most human.

In 2001, Greg spent a year drawing in rural Ireland. This concentrated time was a wonderful opportunity to hone his passion and develop his craft. His works fall into the school of Realism and are executed in pencil, coloured pencil, charcoal and bronze and some are a mixed media.

Greg is married to Gina, has four children, and presently lives in Stellenbosch.
