Meet Herman, the Founder

At the heart of Kerpic Farm, an art and wellbeing retreat nestled in the stunning landscapes of Turkey, stands Herman – a visionary, artist, and creator. With a rich background in fine arts, Herman studied at the University of South Africa, where his passion for painting, paint-making, and sculpture flourished. His journey has seen him establish and run his own successful art school, gallery, and shop in South Africa, nurturing creativity in all its forms.
Driven by a dream to create an oasis of inspiration and mindfulness, Herman sought out the perfect setting by the sea in historic Turkey. Kerpic Farm was born from his desire to craft a sanctuary where both local communities and travellers from around the world can immerse themselves in art, creativity, and nature. This ethically motivated retreat is becoming a place where every visitor can reconnect with their creative spirit in an natural environment that values mindfulness and wellbeing.
Now, as Kerpic Farm comes to life, Herman invites you to join him on this exciting journey. Step into his world, where art and mindfulness intertwine, and experience the magic of creativity in one of the most beautiful corners of the world. Whether you’re an artist, a traveler, or simply someone looking to reconnect with yourself, meeting Herman and the team at Kerpic Farm will leave you inspired.
