Art Expo at 'Back To Black', Amsterdam

This summer and fall I am happy to be able to exhibit my artwork at the ‘Back To Black’ cafe in Amsterdam.

Drop in, have coffee or hot ginger thee and don’t miss out on their delicious gingerbread.

And as you sip away… enjoy the art work.

I would love to hear which piece is your favorite?

These are two of the art pieces at the expo.

Art Awakens Experience ( video-podcast) ​

Art Awakens Experience. The video-podcast where I want to invite you to dive into your own Creative Flow.

Sharing with you my own journey of be(coming) an artist as well as inspiring interviews with different artist

and all-over creative people from different backgrounds, creative disciplines, thoughts, fears and dreams

related to art and creativity.

My wish for this Experience series is to widen our perception on art and awaken more and more of our
Creative Powers that I believe we all posses, but that is often dwelling just beneath the surface, waiting to be
awakened, taken serious and called to life'.

Looking forward to sharing this with you and please take my invitation to be a part of this journey

by sharing your dreams, idea's and artwork with us too.
