Hey there! Thanx for reading this...
Although schooled as a graphic designer, and creating a lot of posters and album sleeves, I work in an endless field. I love to set up my own projects, besides the assgned work.

I've written and directed an animated short, for which I also did design and music, and set up a little fashion brand. I drew lifesize drawings of women in respectable uniforms and costumes that show an interesting lifestyle. I direct and edit short films. Together with my partner I work on a perpetuous Instagram Soup Opera called The Identity Machinery.

I love to develop identities and I love to do posters and covers for records. I worked for Amsterdam Klezmer Band. Fint Fransk Orkerster, Take A Bike Berlin, Rabobank, VPRO, Nasmak, Fort aan de Klop and of course many more.

Commissioned work is great, and I enjoy bringing a sender's communication to e new, preferably playful level. I think I am good at making things 'sensible' by look and feel rather than through literal texts. Uselly an assignment starts with a good talk - communication and mutual respect is key to everything. Send me a line! Let's have a chat!

I work with copywriters, photographers, illustrators, camerapeople, couturiers, webbuilders... My network of creatives is good.
