Hendrik Gericke is a happily struggling artist living a hermetic existence in the southern Boland.
Born and raised a SCUD-throw from Cape Town, he suffered no great tragedy and overcame no real evil growing up (no more than you anyway). Of course this ruined him and he is now a closet neurotic, which happens to be a brilliant catalyst for productivity in the creative soul.
A self taught artist, he feeds upon the creations of those that have gone before him, safe in the knowledge that this is the way of the world and the only way forward.
