Spring Along the Dyke near Lekkum - "I painted this piece on a day when the sky felt alive, just before a spring storm rolled across the quiet fields near Lekkum. The air carried that unmistakable mix of calm and anticipation—something I’ve always found magical. The scene inspired me to capture not ...

Bio:
I was born on March, 29th, 1961 in Leeuwarden, The Netherlands. I started drawing from the moment I could hold a pencil. Oh yeah! :-) Besides the fact that it was fun, I collected prizes. I earned my first money and even a 17 jewels incabloc-wrist-watch in drawing and colouring contests when I was 8 years young.
When I was 18 I joined the Art Academy 'Vredeman de Vries' in Leeuwarden, which doesn't exist anymore but in those days was well known by it's high level of education. I studied each evening at the Academy. And earned a living as a freelance photographer and art director at an advertising agency during the day.
After 5 years I graduated and I began my career working as a freelance designer, illustrator, art-director and creative director.
In 2005, together with two fellow employees, we started our own (graphic and web) design studio. Its very succesful and the creative work for cultural-, educational- and care-organisations is very rewarding.
In 2019 I handed in my shares and accepted a position as creative director at a Dutch design and crossmedia company.
I picked up painting again since the start of the studio in 2005. I create my work 'au plein air' in the spring and summerdays in my boat. And during wintertime I sketch and paint in my painting studio at home.
My life experiences, esthetic ideas and education are mixed together to deliver expressive, vivid and sometimes romantic paintings to the world. I am a dreamer.
As Diana Vreeland once said;
"I believe you see, in the dream.
I think we only live through our dreams
and our imagination.
That's the only reality we really
ever know."
Amen to that.
