About me
Currently residing and working from the Netherlands. I like to visualize with both hand-work and digitally, letting myself adapt an appropriate style for the project at hand. Humor often plays an important role in my work, when appropriate I like to utilize it and provide that element that I feel is too often missing in the industry!
Projects
  • No More Multivitamins
    No More MultivitaminsIllustrations for a five-course blog post about balancing nutrition, healthy diets and saying goodbye to useless multivitamins!
  • Sweet Rebels Mural
    Sweet Rebels MuralThe common pigeon, descended from the cliff dove, has arguably adapted best to the grey, urban environment and like the street fashion foundry; Sweet Rebels, can be easily found in the heart of Rotterdam’s Centre. The piece was designed in grey scale to contrast the ever changing, colourful collection of vintage clothing.
  • Concept renders for Brouwerij Jeker
    Concept renders for Brouwerij JekerA set of illustrated labels for a collection of craft beers to give a feeling of the direction that the Dutch brewery, Brouwerij Jeker, wants to take their branding. I created some 3D renders to bring the designs to life.
  • Bridge - Personal Fitness
    Bridge - Personal FitnessIllustrations for Bridge's Fitness related blog. The goal was to find a style that communicates the clean and calm image behind Bridge's branding, whilst still communicating the humor and irony found in the writing featured in the bi-monthly blog posts. https://bridge.fitness/blog/quit-these-3-time-wasting-gym-habits
  • Lab Rats
    Lab RatsThis assignment was for The Lab, a cocktail bar and restaurant in Maastricht that mainly caters for the student community. The goal was to redesign their three menus, create a mural that would bring a bit more energy back into the interior and ultimately reinforce their brand Identity.
  • Party Animals (side project)
    Party Animals (side project)This is an ongoing, fairly mindless illustration series following our favourite animals falling victim to our vices! All the pieces are hand drawn and ethanol ink-washed.
