Francois Verster's Gallery

Verster started painting seriously in 1992. Prior to this, he only drew caricatures on demand, such as for university and school papers and painted non-figurative works for friends. Always a natural draughtsman, he started taking painting classes and evolved his own style from abstract to photo-realism and eventually to what could be described as realistic expressionism. He prefers the pliability of oils and rich colours of pastels to other media.
Caude Monet, and our own Jean Welz and Francois Krige are some of his favourite artists.
