Zone 5300 is 15 years old! For their anniversary issue they asked me and fellow illustrator Cosh to design a cover each. The two covers can be joined together to form one image. In stores now!
These are exampes of my 'Credit Crisis' painting series. Made for the artmarket in desperate times! They are small 10 x 10 cm. canvases that are made to look like little details of a larger work. I sold them very cheap with the catchphrase: "A fraction of a painting for a fraction of the price!" They proved very popular. If you are interested contact me to order yours! 15 euro's a piece or 3 for 35! Larger amounts possible.

Another painting. Titled 'Madonna of Sjaarloos'. It's a cross between the traditional Virgin Mary with child and some tiny influences from my wannabe ghetto neigbourhood Sjaarloos (as pronounced by people from Rotterdam instead of Charlois). The broken white lilies symbolise the 'Not so Immaculate Conception'.

A big mural on a abandoned house, commissioned by the city counsil. Painted with spraypaint and latex. The prepwork and tattoos are painted in collaboration with Joost Geertsma and Fintan Scott McGee.
As Rotterdam is a port town I thought it would be nice to paint an old sailor, especially since there are a lot of them living in and around this neighbourhood. He looks out over the Maashaven port in Rotterdam.
Unfortunately my grandmother passed away some time ago and I was asked to make the invitation for the funeral. As most of these type of cards are very sober and, frankly if you ask me unpersonal and boring, I decided it would be fitting to make something a bit more personal and colourful. Considering my normal work this turned out very nice and tasteful, I thought, but, as she would have loved, it shocked half of her old neighbours in the elderly home she was living in...Most people were very positive about it though.
An assignment for Bouwmeesters van Leeuwen, a marketing/communication/design agency, for a campaign called 'creativity starts here'. This campaign by the Rotterdam city council is trying to get more creative people to come to Rotterdam. The sticker combines different creative people and their activities with typical Rotterdam buildings and landmarks...In a creative way of course. It is made to look like somebody 'painted' it on a dirty bus in the mud and dust.
