Jaco was born in Montagu and matriculated at the local High School. After serving in the Defence Force, he studied Mechanical Engineering. Since childhood, Jaco always had a keen creative interest. In 2010, he started collecting unusual natural wood pieces and creating interesting art objects and small sculptures. Shortly afterwards his preferred medium became steel, mainly in the form of recycled steel and tools. The combination of welded steel and a very vivid imagination produce unique art objects for house and garden.
Although still living in Cape Town, he spends most weekends between the mountains outside Montagu, where he plans to settle permanently in the near future.
