Danie Smith, an accomplished painter and sculptor, received mentoring at the age of about 17 by one of the great South African masters of impressionist art, the late Adriaan Boshoff. Danies work reflects his intensive study and training in classical fine art techniques.
Danie Smith was born in 1971 in Westonaria near Johannesburg. A solitary kind of boy, he started drawing at a very young age. Recognizing his talent, an art teacher encouraged him to participate in art shows and it was at one of these that his paintings won first prize and caught the attention of art critics and lovers alike. After that, his paintings were exhibited at school where he sold them to pay for private art classes. Danies exceptional talent was also recognized by the headmaster of his secondary school and he referred Danie to one of South Africa's great masters of impressionist art the late Adriaan Boshoff (1935-2007). Danie, at the age of about 17, had the extraordinary opportunity of having Adriaan Boshoff take him under his wing to develop his artistic talent.
