Autumn Forest

Last week  we finally had (read - made- ) time for a long hike in the autumn forest at the Veluwe. Unfortunateley we chose exactly that forest (Kroondomein Het Loo) that was very limited accessible because of the deer that needed rest. Nevertheless we had a great day. The weather was typically Dutch, sun, rain and wind, so now and then we had to seek shelter under a tree, and that's were I found this beautiful birch bark. The colours and surface of this bark are amazing and reminded me immediately at Norway. I am still looking for a way to make birch suitable for a book cover ...

Passport Case

In order of a client Prien designed a passport case. The graphic on the front has been developed in close cooperation with the client. Because a passport case is new in Prien's assortment I made several trial cases, which I showed at some fairs. Since people seem to like this product I decided to include it in Prien's collection.

It is a very nice aspect of my work; developing products in close cooperation with the client! The result is a personalized special gift!

Happy Red Fish

A few weeks ago, on a Amsterdam Blogger Conference, I met Hagar from Happy Red Fish. We had a nice conversation and we exchanged our business cards. She gave me a wonderful  card, showing one of her artworks. I liked it inmediately! It's a combination of my two favorite materials; paper/pictures and thread/textile. The result is a graphical surprise which invites you to take a closer look.
