Rapunzel


I decorated 'Rapunzel' with ordinary paint and gave her a long braid of hair. This work is a first try-out with ceramics combined with hair.




My first ceramics fired in my kiln.





‘Haar’ Huis


I fulfilled a promise after to many years.
About four years ago someone send me her long hair, after cutting it. I find this action so nice I promised to make her something nice out of it. Because a million of reasons I never came to finish it and the half done work was staring at me from time to time. I wanted to make her something very special; a small piece of jewelry, filled with her own hair. But I'm not a jewelry maker and didn't find the piece I tried to make good enough. At last I came to the conclusion that if I want to give somebody a special work I just have to make a real 'Me'. So I made 'Haar' Huis. I like it!




Photoshoot.


A lot of work was ready or almost ready, but needed to be documented. Edwin & I started to photograph all the new works. Check out work 2010.




Playing with drawings.


I testing to do something different with the simple sketches I always make. I start with the pencil sketch, make a transfer with ink. Than I make a scan of this drawing, witch a print on rice paper. At least I color the print.
Actually I want to try to work with etching materials. That will be my next step.




R’s Escape & Here comes Dolly, in Haarlem


From April 6 - April 27 at Els Hillenius in Haarlem
The work couldn't hang in the show at the city hall of Haarlem because of technical reasons, so we made it 'a trigger piece' in the shop street of Haarlem. This is the third time this work is on show. Super that each show is so different.




Kiss of the Wolf


I find a tittle for the cape I'm working on; 'Kiss of the Wolf'. The work is about the thin line between seduction/victim and seducer, about the both sides of it we all have.
The work is almost finished. Now I have to solve the problem of presenting it. How I have to hang- or put down the work.




Hautnah in Leonberg.


The exhibition Hautnah is in Galerieverein Leonberg in Germany. It will run from March 14 until April 25.



Work in progress; Cape


No title yet, but the work is about both sides of seduction, who is the 'seducer' and who is the 'innocent or fictim'. This work is based on the fairytail 'Little Red-ridinghood'. The outside of the cape, about the innocent girl is ready. Now I'm working on the inside cape which represents the 'wolf'.




First try-out of the blanket


I will let this work rest foor some days. I'm very much doubting about the suitcase.




New works


My house, blanket and a cape.
I'm working on several works at the same time. I try to combine them into one total work about 'finding your own way'.
