Anton
is now a fulltime artist. Anton Gericke
brings us peaceful landscapes and scenes of Arniston
with the traditional fishing boats and cottages. The softness of his pictures
reflects his soul and intense love for the Lord, Jesus Christ has rubbed off on
so many people that have crossed his path and with this artistic talent brings
joy to so many people.

daughters, Murentia
Moffat and Carla Bosch, inherited their talent from him. Since childhood, Anton
taught them to be observant to the beauty of creation.
