His work often centers on playful storytelling, frequently featuring chefs, animals, and wordplay that blend humor with vibrant color palettes. Since beginning his professional career in the early 2000s, Groenewald has established a significant following in South Africa and abroad, with his art appearing in numerous galleries, private collections, and even commercial branding. His ability to find the "lighter side of life" through his characters makes his work a staple for collectors of contemporary South African illustrative art.
