Frans Franciscus
Going through my drawing Diaries as art historians Claar Griffioen an Paul van den Akker are writing about Frans Franciscus. We spend time together in Berlin. I just had finished the Rietveld Academie and Frans was in his last year of Artibus. We were intrigued by the Holy Sebastian. I told Frans More religious stories as he was a Atheist. Me too but was raised as a Catholic.
