Artsit statement
"The basis of my work is the act of painting and drawing itself. Rather than a fixed image, the process determines the result.
Form, texture and colour are an important aspect of my work. The honesty with wich the materials -oil paint, pencil and oil crayon show themselves provides the spectator an insight in the creative process.
Throughout the years I created my own abstract visual language that invites you to pause, reflect and set of your imagination. like to think that my sketches leave a spontaneous and positive mark in these rather dark times."
