born and raised in Groningen

Academy Minerva, Groningen

later study Mo German, teaching certificate

I am primarily a draftsman, I need the tension of the line, even if there are sometimes hardly any lines visible on my oil pastel drawings. It is about the tension of the work process

work figuratively, mostly people I find in photos. There is always a story attached that is not necessarily visible.

often also text.

exhibited mainly in Groningen in galleries, e.g. Forma Aktua, Pictura, Kraayenzank

many works in private collections throughout Northern Europe
