MEET THE MAKER

My name is Corinne Erasmus, and I'm a full-time artist based just outside Cape Town. The Happy Struggling Artist is a celebration of South Africa's incredibly diverse wildlife, specialising in unique art, gifts and collectables that encapsulate the unique spirit that this amazing country is known and loved for. Everything in this shop is hand-crafted by myself, often in partnership with my wonderful, carpenter husband, Alex.
