Franci du Plessis
Being a successful business women in the corporate world and teaching a few years she decided to follow her dream… to become a fulltime artist and is the owner of ARTIST BRUSH ART SCHOOL.
“I realised in 1999 that I could draw! I helped my daughter (she was in grade 2 at the time) to draw a cover page for her homework book. She asked me to do a Aladin scene of the video cover of her favourite animation movie. I was so surprised that I could do this without technical or former art training.
Franci discovered her passion for drawing and painting over 20 years ago. From being a successful businesswoman in the corporate world, teaching in mainstream schools for a few years and studying for her MBA she decided to follow her dream… to become a fulltime artist and is the now owner of her art school – Art With Franci. Between her weekly classes in Fourways and Hartbeespoort, as well as regular commission artworks Franci says she is living her best life!
Franci is known for the way she develops each individual student’s style and technique. It is important to her that the student’s study various medium and techniques to develop their own style.
She strongly believes that anyone can be the best artist they set themselves to be, they just have to have the hunger for it.
