Rupert Cefai was born on a cold night in February in 1971 after tossing and turning in the womb, to a future Regimental Sergeant Major and his wife. His creativity was apparent from an early age, Rupert managed to blend new world military with old world religion by using his parents Christmas nativity as a backdrop for his toy soldiers.

He began studying art at an early age under the tutelage of various masters, such as, A. Chircop and H. Alden, who influenced his talent along with other masters such as W. Apap and Monty Python. Today his art reflects his enjoyment of all subjects ranging from the human figure through to abstracts and landscapes. He is fascinated with that blend and balance in art that stands on the line between the real and the abstract, portraying this effectively in his work.

Convinced that the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything, is 42, Rupert is married to a very patient wife who doesn't know what he's talking about most of the time.

He splits his time between studying, working, painting, and being walked by his dog Knots.
