Adèle's influence comes mostly from her formative years in South Africa. Her textures, colors and ambiance are always in evidence. Her ideas were formed while she and her grandfather listened to classical music drawing and painting together. The colors, smells, music and landscape greatly inspired her creativity. In her early twenties she immigrated to the United States where she fell in love with the freedom and spirit of the new world.

She works in many different mediums: water colors, acrylic, oils, pens, chalk, etchings, plaster, metal hardware and jewelry. She is renown for her ability to bring forth your memories. She has shown her artwork in many countries, Africa, America and abroad. She is looking forward to her next exhibition in Florence, Italy.
