I had to make my mind up about posting some of these images here, because it doesn’t really fit into the rest of the work on this site.
Last year I did a series of photo comics and cartoons around courses in the metal industry, for OOM. Untranslatable for non-dutch speakers I’m afraid.

I did some digital manipulation after I drew this but decided I liked the original better, so there.

For those who watched: I tried to capture the look on the face of Ronella’s dad when Frans compared sorting through the letters [and photos!] of the ‘contestants’ with visiting a meat market.

Just type “kapsalon snack” into Google when you’re curious. A Rotterdam invention that can be found in Amsterdam too now!

In three steps the boy takes on the colors of the other company.

Did this one on a placemat in a vegetarian restaurant. Hey, I did one in 2006, too. Should’ve asked if I could take some of those placemats home, quite nice drawing with my dad’s ballpoint on that heavily textured, plastic-looking paper.

I started a Flickr account a while ago. There isn’t much to see there that isn’t on this site but it seems to be a nice way of finding a new audience.
You can, however, look at my work in a slideshow, which may be nice.

I used to go drawing in the reading room in the central library in Amsterdam. The library moved to a new building which is great, but hasn’t yet proved to be a nice place to draw, so that seems to be the end of my in the library series.
However, I’ve been reserving an afternoon each week for sketching on location for some time so there will be more work of this kind, this time in a series called Steady Sketchin’.
