The Cornelis family on a pleasant summer evening.
Liesbeth, the central figure in the summer scene, is busy finding a tasty recipe in her cookbook. She looks at what ingredients she has at home and enjoys a glass of wine
Peter plays music together with his eldest son Arthur. A piano/harmonica ensemble.
The youngest son Maurice on the far right is a dreamer, and the questioner of the house. In the room you see Rosalie the youngest, who loves a good book. Juliette thinks about beautiful trips and prepares herself. A pleasant evening at the Cornelissen.

Modernist style is my style,

I start with a good composition and story. Construction and composition takes a huge part of the process. Then I will look at some of the photo's you gave me. The figures are a mix of the modernist style and a glimpse of your features. It is a simplified design of you. 

What I need from you

• characters/names
• photo's
• time : 3 weeks in advance
• a free mind = the artist creates the image, you let go of the outcome
• let me know what you love about my work and why, I will think of your words while working

 Think of this as a gift for parents, newly weds, marriage gift, mothers day, fathers day, xmas, and special birthdays, a gift for yourself !
