The work

These are not decorative paintings. They are encounters with the human figure: quiet, turned inward, present rather than posed. The work lives in the space between observing someone and being let in. What stays with you is not the subject, but the stillness around it.

Find the right original painting

Whether it's for your own wall, a meaningful gift, or a collection. Start from what you're looking for.

Signed & numbered editions

Take the work home for less

By selection · a few each year

Commission a portrait, select projects only

Beyond the available work, I take on a small number of private portrait commissions each year. Bespoke, higher-investment pieces in oil, painted from life or your photographs. Selective by nature, as I only accept projects I can do justice.

Why buy directly from the artist

Every painting is an original, bought straight from my studio in North Holland, never a print or a reproduction.

My work focuses on the human figure, light and a loose, painterly touch: a figurative style of my own in which the body comes close, physical and present, and holds your gaze.

Buying direct means you can ask anything before you commit, reserve a work, or commission a bespoke portrait painted in oil from life. Pieces are shipped worldwide and already hang in private collections in the Netherlands and abroad.
