Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
This portrait is painted after a picture taken in 1992, and although I look different today, I still often feel the way I look here: confident, determined. I think that's a good way to make portraits; to create a visual reminder of who you feel you are, or maybe could be, at least. My approach was no-nonsense realism, that focusses on the characteristics of the portrayed person.

Netherlands
Born in Amsterdam in 1969, I was trained as a decorative painter and worked doing faux marble finishing, gilding and other decorative techniques while exploring in my own paintings on canvas new ways to paint and express my vision of the world. Today I use traditional oil paint and epoxy resin, among other components, to create thick river stone-shaped canvasses, with a lot of depth, representing organic structures, which I see as the ‘Structures of Life’ and my portraits. Beside my commissioned work, I like to work on an underground layer of broken fresco. The breaking patterns give the portrait depth, like it tells a story of it's own.
