Born : 25 January 1977, Rustenburg, North West province of South Africa.
Inspired by old master-painters worldwide and especially South-African impressionist Adriaan Boshoff. "I've loved the works of the great masters ever since I can remember," says Weideman. He remembers spending hours studying the works and techniques of the masters of impressionism, including Monet, Degas and Renoir.There were also the techniques that he would explore in his own work. It became an obsession to develop his own unique style based on the established disciplines of the old masters.
Corné was privilege to live with Adriaan Boshoff for one year at Hartbeespoortdam before the tragic death of Boshoff. The hours spend together at Boshoff `s house talking about colors and lines, different strokes, sketching the same thing over and over for hours paid of. 'Although I see Boshoff as my mentor, I had to do the hard work of applying what he told me, and there is no easy way out. I draw and paint ever day and know that practice makes perfect.' 'I wish I had more time with Boshoff but I must rely on my own talents, and gifts that were given me by the LORD.'
The Capetonions received Corné and his art work with open arms. Twenty five of his works of art were sold within hours of the opening speech delivered by Dr Franklin Sonn (former SA ambassador in United States of America). A record price of R60 000 was paid for one piece, and makes Corné ,30 years old at the time, one of the youngest SA artists who has achieved such a goal.
'He is a name to watch out for in future', was every-body's remarks. Weideman's works are displayed in some of the country's top
