to the artists, designers and craftspeople who think I call their work kitsch... this is NOT the case, it refers to my own work

driftwood


After the blast of colours in the previous days this is something else I really like. There is such a big contrast in the things I like. One one side there are the bright, clashing, bold colours which give me 'oxygen'. On the other side I do love the natural look and feeling of wood, stones, rocks and the texture and colour of rusting metal.
My work uses both. In general I will use the natural materials for my works that express a thought or feeling, works with a meaning. For my other works I play with shapes, materials and colours. I do need this contrast to keep in balance.
