John Coltrane plays Coltrane

1967

I was studying painting with acrylics when I was only 19 years old. This painting shows an odd simularity with 'Portraits of Bonaire' 35 years later.

My friendly neighbourhood dealer

1975

Next to working as an art director I wanted to show my skills in drawing. This is an example of pointilism. But in the seventies realism was not very popular.

My first mural in Bonaire. Quite different from my early works, but this is how I discovered 'flat coloring'.

Jan & Melfina (One-way ticket to Bonaire)

2002

The first portrait in flat colors - with cartoonlike outlines. (Illustration to the first story in Portraits of Bonaire.)

Rik & Nita

2002

The first portrait without outlines: hard edge color against color. From here I've developed consequently my own style. I call it 'stylized reality'.
