First we have our chat
You can reach me by email (by filling in the contact form)
or by phone (depending on your location).

After that, I get to work with the info and send you a proposal
outlining what I can create for you,
in what way (paper, canvas,...),
the estimated time it will take,
and an outline of the price.

Then you decide whether you want to order the custom work or not.
There are many possibilities, so just ask. I will let you know if I can fulfill your request or not.

When you decide that you would like to have your personal work made, we move on to the next step.
30% of the estimate amount must be paid before I start drawing or painting. This amount is not refundable.

Then I will make 2-3 sketches, which I will send you to find out which one appeals to you.

You choose your favorite and add any comments. After adjustments, I send the sketch again for approval.

Once the basics are determined I start drawing/painting in color. I usually work in multiple layers, which together lead to the final result. I will either create on paper or digitally, depending on the agreement made.

The time of delivery depends on the specific request and can be 2-3 weeks, to 2-3 months. Estimated work time will be included in your proposal

At this stage of collaboration, you won't hear me for a while. In this phase I develop what was discussed/agreed upon.

I do not send interim results, as I also do not make changes to the design after approval of the basic sketches.

When your personal work is completely finished, I ask to pay the remaining amount. Then your personal artwork will be sent. Digitally or in a package, as agreed beforehand.

I would be delighted to also receive a reaction/review and photo of your unique work in its new home.

Guardian angel
The youngest brother was born after the oldest brother had passed away. Yet, on this birth announcement card, they are united. Nout, Nobel, and Pepijn. This card was designed digitally before Nobel's birth, so that a local printer could add all the details at the time of birth and the cards could be sent to family and friends.

A birth announcement is always tailored to the requests and ideas of the (future) parents. This ensures that a unique event is announced in a uniquely personal way.

If you don’t find what you’re looking for among the standard designs, please feel free to contact me to see if I can create something specifically for you.

A Personalized Artwork for the Nursery

This piece is created on stretched canvas with a white background, allowing the name and character to take center stage.
The white background makes it easy to blend with any interior and looks especially striking on a colorful wall.

Each piece is hand-drawn using watercolor pencils, with several layers of color applied to create depth. A layer of varnish is then added for protection.
These artworks are often given as birth gifts and are available in various sizes. Other customizations are possible, such as adding multiple characters, a text, or a birthdate.

Please note that I do not use texts written by others without their explicit permission, as I respect copyright.

a unique work of art
This piece was created on canvas and stretched over a wooden frame, without an additional outer frame.
The background was first made using oil pastels, and the drawing was added afterward.
You can also choose to have a piece created digitally, which can then be printed on canvas in your preferred size and finish.
This offers even more options to customize the work exactly to your liking.
Together we will discuss the subject, colors, size and finish. This way the end result is made to perfectly match you, your family, your interior,...

No additional copies of this artwork will be printed. This work is a one-time unique creation with you as its one-and-only owner.
