About The Artwork
expand_more
During a visit to a bright, modern bookstore, I had seen this stack of brand-new, flawlessly printed biography books on Marilyn Monroe carefully arranged on a bookshelf.
Looking at the books, I couldn't help but realize that this is all that remains. A whole life, complete with its towering triumphs and deep private sorrows, is neatly packaged as a consumer product.
A lifetime of human experience is bound tightly between two covers, now sitting on a retail shelf with a price tag attached to it that could never do justice to her life and the joy she gave to the world.

About the artist

I create colorful and highly detailed works of art to express my love for the modern human as well as my concerns about contemporary society. Above all I hope to inspire people to stay human and loving. My hyperreal paintings show people on the streets, in stores, public transport and museums or zoom in on popular products.
For me, the glimpses of everyday live are important as they say a whole lot about today's society. They show the way people see themselves, how they interact or are influenced in various ways by modern developments. I observe it, enlarge it and paint it. Time freezes and our fast and busy lives are forever captured in a moment. Finally ready to be observed quietly.
I have been a professional and international acclaimed artist for over 25 years well known for my distinctive style of realist painting. My work can be found in museums, galleries, and private collections all over the world (6 continents, 35 countries). My paintings have been exhibited alongside those of the greatest names in art history at leading art fairs in Europe and the United States.
I've studied painting and fine art at the School of Arts Minerva in the Netherlands, specializing in meticulous form of realistic painting. I live in Leeuwarden, but grew up in Makkum where I now have my studio.
