Work in progress

I made my latest work in commission which was a wonderful adventure for me. I am very pleased with the result, but unfortunately I can not show you more just now because the sculpture will be revealed on the 30th of April.
The clay sculpture is hidden in a mould, and will be bronze cast very soon now by Bronsgieterij Flassh. I shall keep you informed.

Art an gastronomy event

Art an gastronomy event

Masterchef Marco Poldervaart, Restaurant ’t Havenmantsje in Harlingen, and I organized a wonderful wine tasting art event. At first our special guests were welcomed in my studio to get aquainted with my art, and combined with the art they were spoiled by Marco Poldervaart with the most beautiful wine and amuses.
Later we walked to Restaurant ’t Havenmantsje were the guests enjoyed an artist diner, prepared by Masterchef and Sculptor together. For one evening I was working as a waitress and tried very hard to remember all the ingredients in the 10 wonderful courses. It was good fun and I know for sure that cooking is an art!
