I would happily make some artwork on commission. My artwork can be used as an illustration in a magazine, book or website. Al my artwork is digitally made. It is made on my computer in a virtual 3d photo studio. I call my work often 3d artwork, because the virtual photo studio enables me to work in 3d space. This …
UnU Installation for Amsterdam Light Festival
I have applied for the Amsterdam Light Festival edition 2017. My application did get to the second round. But it has not been selected to be finalized. I don’t know the reason why ‘UnU’ has not been selected. I have mixed feelings about this endeavor. I am kind of proud of being selected in the first place. I also think …
Cubed Lamp Design
This is a study for a cubed shaped lamp design. This design will be made of ceramic. The cubes are about 5cm in size. So the whole lampstand will be about 70cm in height and 25cm in width. I wanted the design to look a bit unstable just like a stack of Jenga pieces. But in reality the cubes are …

Lambertus a Dutch Flower Pyramid
Flowers and Netherlands are connected to each other. The Dutch flower auction is the largest in the world. In addition, flowers have a cultural and historical impact on the Netherlands.

A computer offers unlimited creative freedom, but in the real physical world there are many restrictions. This was the case as I began to create the “Estis …

It is inspired by ‘Vanitas‘ which means something like temporary or transient. The second are marbles in a bowl. If you look closely you …
“De innerlijke bevrijding” Animation

In addition, he regularly makes videos in which he tells about his method. He can use this animation as an opening for his YouTube videos. The video is inspired …
Experimenting with Virtual Reality
