Oh my! I just checked Amazon and saw that my next book is already out there to be pre-ordered. a bit soon, I would say, we’re still in the process of making it. But it looks so nice! This book is all about nature, and how to have a nature moment every day. Illustrated by […]
I was invited to do a Workshop Creative Flow at Adr. Heinen Bookstore in Den Bosch. A wonderful bookstore, one you wished you had around the corner. So much space, so much beautiful books, and a little cafe attached to it. In the cafe I held my workshop, 14 people attended, of all ages. They were […]
Hip hip hooray for 10 years @flow_magazine !! This Dutch ten years’ jubilee issue features my ongoing personal project: flowers in different stages of bloom. A project that I started three years ago, just for fun. Because flowers never fail to make me happy. And Flow never fails to make me happy either.

I was interviewed by Flow’s Jeannette Jonker for their website. Check out the interview here in English. The Dutch interview you’ll find here.
Last week Dutch version Creative Flow was presented to Sanny and myself in Midwest, Amsterdam. A lovely afternoon, with paint and cupcakes. Film by Bram Budel.

The book is published in Germany, The Netherlands and England […]
It’s really great to see my book finally going into the world. Some bookshops really have made an effort also! Like Hoogstins in Amsterdam (Kinkerstraat). They ordered 50 copies and made a whole set-up. So cool! I will be going there tomorrow to sign also, around 17.00.
The American publisher gave Creative Flow a different title and look, which I really like! It’s very bright and happy. They also chose different illustrations from the book for the cover. Sanny (van Loon, who illustrated the whole book) and I are sometimes really surprised about how the world of publishing is so completely different […]
