I worked many years as a teacher in Amsterdam in a primary school and taught children in drawing, painting and handicraft. In 1975 I finished The Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam and got my diplomas for high school teaching.



During that time I always made a combination of study in Art history and practising several art techniques. In 2006 my wife Rian and I decided to move from Holland to Portugal ... a new adventure started. Alentejo is our place of inspiration, creation and expression.



I am a Poetic Painter of Landscapes in Sand The cycles of Nature in Foreign Land Historical scenes, Dynamic in Static Musicians and Dancers inspired and Fanatic Triptychs in 3D for new Invention Expressed in paint with my Intention.
