Rinus Michels

This is a portrait I did a while ago for Algemeen Dagblad. It was a tribute to the man who led the Dutch soccer team to european victory in 1988. He died last year.

New Boots

Arendsoog

I have the honour of doing new book covers for the "Arendsoog"-series. (Arendsoog = eagle eye) These books were published in the sixties and seventies in holland and are considered classics.
I wanted to give the books a traditional 'look', so I used some old-school painting effects. For example the red background, heavy outlines and leaving the shadows open. I also wanted it to look like a movie poster. So I used some collage effects, in the tradition of Drew Struzan ( www.drewstruzan.com )
The books will be published at Pimentokinderboeken. ( www.pimentokinderboeken.nl )



Below are the original book covers...

Van Nistelrooij

For this week's Vara-tvmagazine, I made this caricature of Ruud van Nistelrooij.

Elephants and Hippos

A sketch and an illustration for a column, in which the two animals are writing each other letters.
