About "Fins and Wings Fly High"

About the artwork

Being free does not come naturally, like the swaying of the fins of the damselfish, the fluttering of the wings of a nymph and the spreading of the wings of the bird of paradise. The free forms that undulate on the wind or in the water. Sometimes it only takes a small set.

He About me

After a bad accident in which he lost everything, he had to reinvent himself. After long recovery, he crawled out of his hole into the world. Then he met her and she understood his psyche.

Together they searched "out of the box" for the unknown. From searching for gold in the meadows to 80 kmph together on a mobility scooter to creating the best of what could happen to them, he suddenly saw the big in the small.

Work

I create my work using various professional apps in the palm of my hand. I get my work from photographs I take of a wide variety of objects. I also often dig into my library and then reproduce older work of mine or combine it again with newer work. I always work at the highest resolution and often work with a touch of overexposure, which can cause the edges of colour to smudge a little, but da's the intention.

In the past, I also did a lot of real painting and in my youth I did cartoon drawing and also a lot of commissioned gravity for community centres and youth clubs. After getting my middle school diploma, I went to the Graphic Lyceum to get my Graphic Designer diploma.

I then worked for an advertising agency for about 2'5 years, where I was allowed to work on large projects for Nestle, Frisian Flag, BBC England, the Department of Public Works, among others. I then joined my father's business working in lettering in car advertising.
