I
won the First Prize in the 1984 Illustration contest of Cosmopolitan
magazine. This lead to an assignment for a poster promoting movie for
the youth, and that's how the youth novel publishers got interested in
my work.
When I took part in selections for the yearly Dutch Illustrators Club
exhibitons in 1990, 1991, 1992 qnd 1993, in the Stedelijk Museum in
Amsterdam, my work received a First Prize in 1991, a First Prize in
1992, one of the two nominations for the
VakJury Jaarprijs 1992 and a
shared First
Prize in 1993 for Book Illustrations.
Wherever suitable, I prefer to
make the
typography with a free hand.
