Mixed Media Digital Art
Since October 2013 I bring a compact camera on my
daily walks in the surroundings. These first snapshots I re-work, and
finally edit them digitally in several Adobe programs like Photoshop,
Illustrator and/or After Effects, until I reach the effect that I want.
It is always a work of hours, sometimes days to get the high quality
formats. These images I sell in high quality prints, and in a numbered
edition, signed, numbered and dated by me, for as little as 125 Euros.
Already since the eighties I'm interested in digital art; worked with
all kinds of computers and environments, but it is with the further
development of technique that this art evolves into lively and
impressing images, which are not only stand-alones, but become more and
more moving targets with an own language and imaging construction.
I also wrote a book:
Release "Wanderbach" in English
This is the story of Tork, an adventurer who travels around the world
with his two dogs. By coincidence, he finds the village Wanderbach, a
strange place inhabited by Nymphs who convince him to descend to Under
Earth, the place where the Gods are, for a quest to end the growing
problems on this world. During this fantastic journey, Tork finds out
the real cause of all the trouble. The Gods were fighting amongst each
other. After a lot of trouble, Tork finally finds and addresses the
Gods. In the end, it leads to the destruction of the pantheon.
About Me
As an artist I had my first exhibition in 1980. I
have lived in the Netherlands, Belgium and the US. In 1986 I moved to
Amsterdam, got involved in organizations and committees, and, maybe even
more important, it was the beginning of the internet and its
possibilities. A new horizon opened up; the digital freeway. In this
period, my writing became more successful, with publications in
prominent anthologies and magazines. After a study of Internet Developer
Expert in Antwerp, I moved to Spain until the crisis forced me to
return to the Netherlands where I now live in Maastricht.
