2nd Prize Hans Nijhof Artprize– 25 November 2023
The announcement of the winner of the Hans Nijhof Art Prize took place today in the orangery of Sandenburg estate. The winner is Pieter Jaspers. I came second, together with Janine van Dijk. Nice to be called ‘up-and-coming talent’! Pleased with it!
Even nicer because the painting was sold to one of the attendees.
Thank you Cultural Region Foundation for your support!

Four active ‘en plein air’ painters have joined forces to create an exhibition unique to the region: Karin Boers and Anne Jitske Salverda (Wijk bij Duurstede), Marieke Ackerman (Driebergen) and Rijk Roor (Odijk). The work shown is mostly made outdoors and always has as subject the beauty of the regions Utrechtse Heuvelrug and Kromme Rijngebied (from Rhenen to Utrecht).

Nominated for the Hans Nijhof Art Prize
My painting ´Cows and clouds´ is one of the five nominees for the Hans Nijhof Art Prize! I am very happy with this recognition! The prize aims to stimulate the connection between art, culture and municipalities in the region Utrechtse Heuvelrug, Wijk bij Duurstede and Rhenen. The winner’s artwork will be hung in a municipality in the region (this year: Wijk bij Duurstede). The announcement is on November 25, exciting!
Retrospective Open Studio Route Driebergen – 7 and 8 Oktober 2023
What a festive weekend it was! Many people came to visit my studio and that resulted in many nice, valuable conversations. I asked visitors for tips for painting locations, so I can discover new places in the region in the near future. I also sold 7 paintings, which of course I am also very happy about. In short, it was a great success! Thank you very much for coming! Below you can see an impression. If you would like to see which paintings I sold, take a look here.
