Paintings

I grew up in Bergen, a small artist village in the Netherlands, where I was surrounded by painters and creatives. From a young age, I was already experimenting with paint and materials — some works I proudly sold, others I left by the roadside without regret. The pieces featured here are the ones I chose to keep.

Now, years later, they’re ready for new homes — perhaps even yours. As an emerging artist, I often heard that I should develop a personal style — a clear artistic “signature.” But I found that this search for a fixed identity often came at the cost of creative freedom. While trying to define your style, you risk ignoring new ideas and directions. That, to me, felt like a loss.

So I allowed myself to explore. I’ve always jumped in different directions, fascinated by all forms and techniques. The result is a body of work that’s diverse and difficult to pigeonhole — and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Looking back, I’m glad I never confined myself to a single path. That would’ve been far too predictable.

Long live change.

Most of my works are on the larger side, so shipping is arranged in consultation. I work with professional art couriers; delivery time and cost will be determined based on location.
