Mack Mojapelo
Mack was born in Pietersburg in the Northern Transvaal, (now Limpopo Province), on the 31st January 1952.
He started sketching in pencil at the age of 15 and unlike many Black South African Artists has moved into a very realistic style yet still with a sense of abstraction.
His works consist of portraits, traditional homeland life and wildlife.
He attended art classes for six months at the Eloff Extension, Dorkey House in 1975.
At present he lives with his family in Mothape Village near the University of the North, Pietersburg in Limpopo Province
