Leeuwarden-Fryslan is the cultural capital of Europe. 128 households in Feanwaldersterwal were photographed. For this Friesland-special I illustrated the V-cover, with the most iconic habit in Friesland: ‘polsstokhoogspringen’.
Together with graphic superhero Onno Blase I designed the campaign for Oranjebloesem festival 2018. We created six different ‘festival flying machines’. Flying in the dunes/sky/space they take you to the best place to celebrate Kingsday. As the festival comes closer, the machines fly higher and the sky becomes darker and more intense. More about this project soon!

Last summer (2016) I traveled through the United States of America for 2 months. I had been there before, and have always been fascinated by this country. The immense landscapes where you can drive for hours without seeing anyone, beautiful nature and het national parks. The enthusiastic and hospitable people and the typical look of American houses. I think I could happily live in my own ‘American dream’ for quite some time.
So that’s what I decided to do: I brought my sketchbook and drew all the things that I saw and fascinated me. I collected little chitchats, patterns, nature, people, food, houses, animals and colors. These little drawings are my view of this beautiful country that I hope to visit again very soon.

The table is filled with people from different heritages, with little Dutch elements in the drawing: the pigeons and the fact that the whole illustration is in red, white and blue (referring to the Dutch flag).

The design is a series of patterns with typical beach, party or Kingsday elements in it. These patterns were used for posters, banners and for several elements at the festival.
