Pierre Cronje is an upper income household name. His furniture graces the homes of some of the most influential people in business and politics, and they are investment pieces that can be passed down from generation to generation. I was surprised to meet him and he had such a down-to earth manner. His wife, Frances, impeccably stylish and so warm..just like their furniture, I suppose...:)
He firmly believes that art is not perfection. When taking his portrait I was very aware of his view of what is art...I love it... it is an organic process... just natural light waiting for the right moment.. no posing- he hates that :)
Some clients want perfection, but art cannot be perfect and perfection isn't art - between the two there is a place of natural beauty that I seek. - Pierre Cronje
