Egyptian mummie portraits

What a stunning exhibition it was at the Historical Museum of Amsterdam.

Lots op portraits of dead people, beautiful expressions and personal signatures.

Loved it.

Faces of the North

This exhibition about portraits in different media is at the Amsterdam Museum. I did suggest my paintings for the groups portraits.

Gezichten van Noord-Holland

Vanaf morgen is de nieuwe tentoonstelling Gezichten van Noord-Holland te zien. Deze tentoonstelling is het resultaat van een uniek samenwerkingsproject tussen het Amsterdam Museum en het Frans Hals Museum in Haarlem. Samen met inwoners van de provincie Noord-Holland hebben de musea nieuwe en onvertelde verhalen ontdekt en vertaald naar bijzondere (groeps)portretten. Waar historische portretten in de collectie van beide musea vaak slechts de elite van de 16de en 17de eeuw tonen, brengen de portretten in deze tentoonstelling de diversiteit en veelzijdigheid van de provincie in beeld. Met Gezichten van Noord-Holland voegen het Amsterdam Museum en het Frans Hals Museum een nieuwe laag, gekenmerkt door een brede representatie van sociale klassen, leeftijden, genders en culturele achtergronden, toe aan de visuele geschiedenis van Noord-Holland. 

Van 26 juli tot en met 10 november 2024 is deze tentoonstelling te zien.

Marion

Today is the birthday of my sister Marion who recently passed away. She was also my super sweet buddy and fantastic friend. I’m working on a graphic score about her/our life. Unfinished. I miss her so deeply… ❤️🌸😢

Nailed; murdering nuns

Murdering nuns, name unknown

Scetching and visual research for the series: Nailed; screaming priest, silent popes, sadistic nuns.

Its about the child abuse by the priest and cardinals, the murder of the orphans by the nuns and their bosses, these holy popes that just looked away or covered the crimes up.

Finally I will turn them into portrait paintings and create a ‘wall of fame’ so we know who they are and what they did.

They fill me with disgust. Finally I will turn them into portrait paintings and create a wall of fame so we know who they are and what they did.

Nailed; have to look up his name.
