From March 5 to 8, I get to showcase my artwork alongside 179 other artists at NOCKNOCK Art Fair 2026!
At the Kromhouthal in Amsterdam, NOCKNOCK brings together art, design, and connection in an accessible, innovative setting.
With Art on the Catwalk (a genuine fashion show!), inspiring talks (including the Rijksmuseum and Loes Haverkort – winner of Het Perfecte Plaatje 2023, a dutch televised photography contest), panels, live performances, live painting, and even a creative kids’ corner.
Will you come by for a visit? From the main entrance, turn left and walk all the way to the end. You’ll find my stand on the right-hand side of the catering area.
The cultural programme of RTV Utrecht, Route C, made a wonderful feature about my work.
It offers a glimpse into my process and where I draw my inspiration from, and it will be broadcast throughout the weekend. A corresponding article also appeared on their website.
Recently I was accepted into Meesters van het Realisme (Masters of Realism), a selection of two hundred Dutch artists who practice the art of realistic drawing and painting at the highest level.
I am incredibly proud to call myself a Master of Realism as of today.”
Thrilled to see my paintings Louis and Josephine in the Time and Memory art book.
Curated by Arts to Hearts Project, it brings together works by artists from around the globe in a wide range of styles and mediums, reflecting on the interplay between fleeting moments and lasting memories, temporality and remembrance.
Each artist is presented with a two-page spread – one page for the artwork and one for the inspiration behind their creativity.
You’ll find Louis and Josephine on page 74!
On Saturday October 5. and sunday October 6., a selection of my paintings will be on display during Vreemde Gasten, a biennial contemporary art exhibition in the historic city center of Amersfoort (the Netherlands).
At numerous locations within the city walls – historical homes and other unique buildings – well-known and upcoming artists from the region will be exhibiting their art. A fantastic opportunity to admire not only the art but also the locations.
If you are in the neighbourhood, come say hi! You can find me at Stad van Cahen, Muurhuizen 104. We are open from 12 PM to 5 PM, and entry is free.
