Epona's story starts in April 2008 in our neighbour's stable. Epona came into the world after a very difficult birth. After the delivery, we were allowed to come and visit. And there we saw a very small foal and an exhausted mother horse. The foal stood up too slowly and she remained very shaky.
How... ...do you come up with the surreal things you make? I don't know exactly, but below is a kind of report of a creative process. I have been tinkering a lot in the past few days. Everything I made just wasn't quite right. So it was a matter of 'Kill your darlings' and

I've been cutting and pasting and searching my entire photo archive again. Resulting in this work. Tadááá here I present: 'Sweet Pirate'. The large turtle in this work was photographed in Wildlands Zoo in Emmen, where these friendly giants swim in their aquarium. In the crow's nest of this ship there's a hare looking
Last year while strolling the fields nearby my house, I found a roedeer skull. I took it home and someone there was very curious about this object :-) Our dog Valentino was on the one hand very interested and on the other hand, he thought it was an almost too exciting object. He was
Many couples share their fantasies, but I don't think many couples share an imaginary circus. My wife and I do, though. A few years ago we spent our holidays in Toscane.
