Mist on the Leuvehaven

This photo was taken one morning in January, shortly before sunrise. Moments earlier, it was still foggy but that fog is now slowly receding. But the buildings on the Kop van Zuid, across the river Maas, are still shrouded in mist.

The lights of the historic ships in the Leuvehaven add atmosphere to the scene, which is enhanced by the colourful elements like the wheelhouse of the harbour crane, the flat-bottomed boat at the front left and the stairwells of the residential towers. The mirror-smooth water completes the magic.

And if you look very closely, you can see the Erasmus Bridge, this time in a very modest role....

My work can be found in the border regions of photography, painting and computer visuals. With my company 3Develop I do work in commission but I use the same techniques, skills and software to make free work.

World maps and reliefs made from unique materials, vintage postcards, and futuristic space art, graphic interpretations and painterly edits, artist impressions, and abstract geometric art. But also more "traditional" photography of cities and landscapes, plants, and textures.

Originally trained as an architect and living in Rotterdam, I draw significant inspiration from the architecture and history of Roffa/Rotjeknor/Bokitodonk. Additionally, travels to places like Iceland and Great Britain, as well as walks in the Netherlands, provide ample material for my work.

All the pieces in my webshop are carefully selected for their suitability as wall art. The possibilities with the professionals at Werk aan de Muur are nearly endless: from canvas and photo prints to aluminum and acrylic glass. Square or round, framed or unframed. From an A4-sized print to wall-covering wallpaper. The perfect wall art for your living room, kitchen, bedroom, or even balcony and garden!
