It’s been a long time since I made a portrait and this is actually the first time I made one in linoleum. This XL lino block was a lot of work to carve with all the curves involved in the design and even more challenging to print. But I am really happy and satisfied how…

This watering can and birds linoleum piece is inspired on childhood memories of my grandparents garden. The floral pattern in the watering can is a free interpretation of the blue and white Beatrix table ware my grandmother used to have. DETAILS Printed on Lanaroyal paper, ‘pure white’, 184 lb.

This new XL linoleum piece is matching the theme and size of the two XL linoleum pieces I made last year, as part of a series. It’s the most detailed one thus far and really challenging to carve. I’ve made a print run in three colours: phthalo blue, ultramarine blue and process red. DETAILS– Printed…

I started making this bird being curious if I could do a multi colour piece on this small suface. It was quite a challenge, but a fun one! As well with the color scheme I stepped out of my ‘comfort zone’. Six colour layers have been printed for this bird, made with both linoleum reduction…

It was a sad moment that gave rise for the idea of these lino prints. Light and dark, day and night, it’s all part of life and sometimes difficult to accept. These sun and moon linoleum prints are made with a combination of reduction and puzzle technique. Both have 6 colour layers printed. DETAILS Printed…

I really enjoyed making these greeting card designs. It’s a series of six now, but I can imagine I will make some more to add to this series in the near future. These original linoleum print greeting cards are lovely to send, but also nice to frame as artworks and hang on your wall! They…

Pretty proud about this one! This project is a combination of reduction and puzzle linoleum technique. The result is a handmade original linoleum print with 8 colour layers printed individually. It is a limited edition print run with a circulation of 24 prints! Each print is numbered and signed by hand. DETAILS Printed on Strathmore…

This year I designed three new linoleum pieces especially for Christmas greeting cards. And of course there had to be birds in these designs! I made sets of each three greeting cards printed on brown kraft paper with matching enveloppes. There are 2 colour variations: a ultramarine blue set and a multi colour set with…

A teacup linoleum piece to join the recently made teapot lino. They are both inspired by Beatrix pottery my grandmother had when I was little. I printed an open run from this piece with three colour versions: ultramarine blue, dark blue and old pink. DETAILS– Printed on Strathmore paper, ‘natural white’, 184 lb.– Paper size…

The design for this linoleum piece is inspired by the tableware my grandmother had when I was a little child. I really loved the floral pattern of the Beatrix pottery from Maastricht. I decided to make an open print run with three colour versions: ultramarine blue, dark blue and old pink. DETAILS– Printed on Strathmore…
