New website
Working on my new website has swallowed all time, at least the last month. It actually took me months to go through Youtube tutorials and library 'Wordpress for dummies' books.
But it was great fun to work on it.
Here it is:

And I hope the Google spiders will find my website soon, because the old one has disappeared.

A dragon of Cobalt
Last few weeks, while I got square eyes from the computer screen working on my new website, I managed to escape the screen a few times to paint on my new commissioned vase. And last week the clients arrived to add some personality to the vase: their initials on a little ceramic book.

Rural fields
I am working on a new vase the in studio of ceramic artist/designer Norman Trapman.
His studio is located within by the green rural fields of the village of Nieuwveen.
A two hour public transport trip with train and bus brings me there.
This new dragon vase is a private commission.
Norman has thrown the vase and now I am decorating it.
Painting the vase will be the last stage.

A homage: Daar komen de Putters!
I just finisished two small paintings for the project De hommage.
A year ago, the artists Leonard van de Ven and Rens Krikhaar started De hommage.
They invited more than 45 professional artists to make a tribute to the 17th century artist Carel Fabritius, and his famous painting The Goldfinch.
Fabritius died young, caught in the explosion of the Delft gunpowder magazine, October 12, 1654, which destroyed a quarter of the city, along with his studio and many of his paintings. Only about a dozen paintings have survived.
Carel Fabritius painting The Goldfinch is in the collection of the Mauritshuis in The Hague.
The painting is a trompe-l'œil of a European goldfinch (Carduelis carduelis) on top of its feeder that is attached to the wall. The feeder consist of two half rings and a blue container. The bird is sitting on the top ring, to which it is chained by its foot.
In the 17th century, goldfinches were popular pets because they could be trained to draw water from a bowl with a miniature bucket. The Dutch title of the painting pertains to the bird's nickname puttertje, which refers to this custom and translates literally as little weller.

On October 19th, 2014 opens the first edition (Ouverture) of Daar komen de Putters! (Here come the Goldfinches!), at museum castle Keukenhof in Lisse, The Netherlands.
After the exhibition in castle Keukenhof the exhibition travels to different locations, more information soon.
