I got to now the work of León Spilliaert (1881–1946 ) during a visit to Ostend (B) in 1996 where in the museum of fine arts an exhibition of his work took place.
His seascapes in particular made a big impression on me, I came across the work several times in the following years and every time there was that enormous appreciation for the austere great strength of the work.
At the beginning of 2005 my work developed in a direction in which the simplicity, the sobriety of the image and my use of color became characteristic of my work.
Again I run into Spilliaert and without copying him, his work influenced my way of working.
