Date of birth: aug 25 1963, the Netherlands
At a very early age I became aware of the
beauty surrounding me. Flowers, trees, music,
the scent of perfume and the curves of the
human form. At some point I tried to capture
things on paper with a crayon.
That didn't work out, my hands could not draw
the images that were in my mind and after a
while I gave up.
Then life kicked in when I fell in love, got married
and I was blessed with two beautiful children. My
first marriage didn't work out and at times it was
hard trying to raise my children on my own.
After some years I fell in love again and suddenly my family got twice as big with two more beautiful
children. When the kids got older I finally had some spare time on my hands and the 'need' to create
something got stronger than it ever was before.

In 2006 I discovered a 3D program and the possibility of
creating images the way I wanted was suddenly there. In
my images I try to portray the beauty and sensuality of
women and also to show vulnerability, femininity and
sometimes strength. In a way creating those images are
some sort of therapy for me. Most of the girls I render are
reflections of my inner self. In my real life I never could
express myself the way I really am and so my renders do
it for me.
My goal for the future is to create photorealistic
renders and maybe one day I will be able to do so. I
know this will take me many, many years of practice.
My tools are DazStudio 4 Pro, Reality Plugin,
Luxrender and Photoshop.

In a way the images I create are a reflection of my inner *me*, but don't get me wrong here,
when I look in the mirror I look nothing like the images I render ! God didn't grant me that
beauty, oh no ! Well.. maybe in my next life.. who knows? *smiling*.
