Galerie Schortgen in Luxemburg
























Today I drove to Galerie Schortgen in Luxemburg to bring a whole lot of paintings for my exhibition in Parc Merveilleux, organized by Galerie Schortgen.
Galerie Schortgen has 2 galleries in Luxemburg. 1 in Luxemburg-city, 1 in Esch-sur-Alzette. The image above is from the gallery in Esch-sur-Alzette.
Great space with really awesome artists.
Last time I went to Luxemburg to bring paintings to the galerie in Luxemburg-city, it was soooo cold! 
This time it was a very sunny day, so much lovelier than the cooooooold!
If you're in Luxemburg in May, you can see my paintings in the pavilion of Parc Merveilleux in Bettembourg. For more information www.galerie-schortgen.lu

Art fair at Evoluon - Eindhoven (NL)

Today I visited the art fair in the Evoluon in Eindhoven, where my paintings are represented by Galerie De Kei. As a child I used to visit the Evoluon to see the newest inventions and innovations made by Philips. I always loved the flying-saucer-concept of the building. Today this is a wonderful location for something like an art fair. I was early because I wanted to go to the wholesale afterwards to buy a lot of new paint. But nevertheless there already was a lot of interest for my paintings. Always great to see and hear!

If you're interested in visiting the fair, it lasts until tomorrow 17.00 hours.

Sunny Paris

A few pictures of my paintings exhibited at Galerie Tatiana Tournemine in Paris.






















From April 1 the group exhibition of artists in residence got started and I'm one of them. Up to 6 of my paintings (5 large, 1 small) are shown right now in sunny Paris. Of course there are some paintings in stock too. I think my paintings go great with the sculptures of Isabel Miramontes from Mons, Belgium.
If you're interested, do pay a visit to Galerie Tatiana Tournemine on 104, Rue du Faubourg St.-Honoré in Paris, www.tournemine.com. This exhibition will last until June 1.

A small gesture can have great consequences

Ready for a brand new day, 13x18 cm/5x7")

















On March 31 the silent auction of small original artworks organized by the Haiti Art Fund was closed.
My small painting has been sold for $100 and I'm very satisfied with this result!
THANK YOU silent buyer, on behalf of the stricken population of Haiti.
All the small paintings that have been sold together, make a large amount and 100% of the proceeds directly go to Unicef, Partners in Health, Oxfam and Habitat for Humanity.
It must have been a whole lot of work, so thank you, Monkdogz Urban Art Inc., Marina, Bob and Sébastien for all the efforts!

Interview in Eindhovens Dagblad




















Today an interview with me in the full edition of the Eindhovens Dagblad.
I've been asked to answer some questions about cars. Probably because I like dynamics, acceleration and speed! ;-)
