Banknotes (2009)

Commissioned by the South African Reserve Bank to design commemorative banknotes that encompassed not only South Africa's pride in nature but also our vibrant culture.

On the R500 note - the Cape Mountain Zebra, painted with gouache and on the R25 note is The Grey Crowned Crane, our national bird also painted with gouache. 

All things were considered for the design of these notes, even micro printing and various security features.
