Born 1947 in Den Helder, The Netherlands
1964 - 1968 Art school department textile.
Since 1969 Exhibitions in several galleries and museums in Holland.
Since my 16th I am busy with photography. First with my moms Exacta and later with my own Practica and later a Nikon FE2. I did print my photographs in my own darkroom.
To day I am working with film and also with some digital cameras and last year I am interested in some alternative processes.
For several years I used my photographs as design for my woven wall hangings later photography was the only art form within I expressed myself.
The subjects I most love are structures, nature, the seashore and harbours. Last years I am busy with a series of flowers and especially with the fading beauty of tulips.
