    Is one talented guy. Check out her webpage if you don't believe me. The portrait of her on the front page was way cool, and even though his favourite seems to be Mieke in compromising situations they're all mue cool.

    Me impressed. Me likes. You have any of those on the walls where you live?

    Yeah, Willem is a damn fine painter. His newer stuff is much better though, really really awesome.

    We have one on the wall, I'll update my website tonight and add some of his newer stuff. He's actually graduating art school on the 25th of june, we're all kind of worried what will come of him then since it isn't all that easy making a living out of art. No matter how talented you are.

    He's also on the Siemens calender for this year and the painting that is on there is the first and only painting he's sold so far.. since none of his piss poor friends can afford to buy any, we're all huge fans.

    Anyway, thanks for the compliment and I'll be sure to pass it on.

    My brother isn't into that abstract shit either.. Interesting however that you like the one where I've slit my wrists best.

    He has a very high level of production but mainly because he's very driven to keep changing as an artist and not do the same shit from now on. He's still young anywho.

    Usually with the more famous abstract painters, their filosophies and ideas on art were better then their actual paintings. IMHO of course.

    Somewhy I really liked this one from his never batch. Dunno why, I used to hate this kindof stuff when I was younger. I guess it just interests me.

    Aah, haha, and now I found it in a high-res version... Desktop picture, here I come! biggrin

    Those faces are KEWL. They remind me of the art in the Stephen King's "Wizard and glass" novel. But these are better. biggrin

    There arn't too many good painters out there today, most painting now is that stupid ass modern art bullshit. But I really like his style. It has a mellow feeling to it, by the way he uses long, wide strokes.

    My fav would have to be the one of magna in the shower. It's very nice.

    I would like to see more of his stuff.

    I like that one a lot too, it was sort of the first one where he'd really found something he could move forward from.

    I also like the last one on my page, the whitish/ greenish one, it looks like everything is sort of melting and falling apart in some odd cartoon world.
