It should hit the Belgian bookstores very soon...

Two more weeks left until the release of Het hondje dat Nino niet had (The dog Nino didn't have)!

NEST Kust-special 

Editorial work for NEST 

Busy making a series based upon the fascinating dioramas you'll find in a museum of natural history, filled with stuffed animals and beautifuly painted scenery in the back. I love that 'romantic, perfect world behind glass'-kind of feeling they have.

It's gonna be all about India, Nocturnal jungles, ...

Below are a few pictures of the process.

                                      
                 
                                      

                                     

                                     

What a nice surprise in the mail yesterday!

It's been awfully quiet over here lately, but after a year and a few months of work my first children's book, HET HONDJE DAT NINO NIET HAD (The doggie Nino didn't have) is a fact! It's being published by Belgian publisher De Eenhoorn on the 15th of april.
The wonderful text was written by author Edward Van De Vendel.

Here's a little preview of the cover and a few pages. We'll keep the rest a secret until it comes out.
There are a few other projects on it's way aswell...

A while ago, Rotopolpress gave me the chance to make one of five illustrations for Slanted Magazine(!)

Each of us was given a font name as inspiration for the piece. Mine was Panorama.

This is how it appeared in the magazine.

A recent illustration I did for The New York Times for a column about commuting to manhattan.

I was very thrilled with this submission.

New Illustration for Nobrow 7, Brave New World.

I had a great time working on this one!

Hi everyone!

My work, Memoires of a Suburban Utopia' is now published by the German publisher ROTOPOLPRESS.

"Memoires of a Suburban Utopia" is a concertina book wich folds out to a stunning 260cm Illustration that gives us an insight into the modern suburbs of nowadays. In these suburbs, where everybody is isolating their property with neatly cut hedges and bushes, garden gates and white picket fences, dozens of stories are about to happen every day. Everyone is living their own lives, we can merely catch a glimpse. Those lives can appear much more thrilling or mundane as they actually are.

FOR MORE INFORMATION OR TO ORDER: check out the Rotopolpress website: http://www.rotopolpress.de/en/produkte/memoires-of-a-suburban-utopia

Price: €15

Have fun watching!

I was asked by Nobrow to take part in Nobrow 7! Here are a few details of my work. I would like to post the whole work but I don't know if I can already so let's keep it a secret for a while.

Here's a print I made for an exhibition held by Rotopolpress in Germany.
The theme of the exhibition is 'Bad Villain'. The exhibition starts 25/11 and runs until 11/02.
