Theronda was born in George, South Africa and studied at the University of Stellenbosch, achieving a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and History. She also did further studies at Spier Art school in Stellenbosch and studied Ikebana flower Art under Charles Kinnear. A graphic course was also done under Ian Taiton in etching, lino, lithography and aqua tinting.

Theronda is inspired by Suffolk skies and landscapes, particularly Aldeburgh and Southwold, (Her Venice in the UK). Her motto in life is: ”I live to paint and paint to live.”

She is currently artist in residence at Kesgrave Arts in Kesgrave, Suffolk. She paints in acrylic, oil and she also does sculptures in metal and graphic work as well as video art and mixed media. Space and lines are prominent themes in these works.

Theronda has kindly opened her studio for the Meet The Artist experience.
