I am a surfer, coach and artist. Since 2012, I have been creating my animals on the touchpad. After asking "What is your favourite animal?" to a beloved friend or family member, I get to work. The first one was for myself; 'shark.' Using Polynesian surf culture as inspiration, the animals remind you of modern hieroglyphs. My own favourite colours, red and blue, as a reference to my Dutch origin. With each animal, I add elements that fit the person I am making it for. Details, structures, patterns, they emerge during the process. When I find the balance between 'critically looking and improving' and 'letting it come into being', I fall in love with my own works. I hope you have too.

My own favourite colours, red and blue, as a guideline and Dutch origin. With each animal I add elements that fit the person I make it for. Details, structures, patterns, they arise during the process. When I find the balance between 'critical viewing and improving' and 'letting arise', I fall in love with my own works. I hope you do too.
