The guys from sesame street funk invited me to join them painting
at this amazing festival with many many musical acts, 22000 visitors
and crazy art, freestyle poetry, theatre, and eye candy everywhere.
Definately one of the the nicest festival holland has, here’s a linky.

My friend Jur is doing all these funky shops around the globe, as here in “le printemps” in Paris. I went along because i LOOOOOOOOOOOVE to paint.

We picked up the idea to do “hanami” in Tokyo and film the city and the sakura blossoms for future VJ-gigs. Some of the footage was used in the visuals for the Ferry Corsten shows.

For the april2008 issue of DIMI (Rotterdams culture magazine) we made this illustration. The illustration goes with an article about viva la poze…a multidisciplinary event about fashion and lifestyle. The model for this illustration is Peter Strauss.

As i announced before, i was designing and making tshirts for the tshirt expo and sale at the tegendraads festival @ LVC in Leiden. Here is some photos, i hope to add some more later.

At my homebase…club off-corso they just installed 2 new projectors. Here im using the full set of beamers plus 2×9 monitors for visuals at a solid-sold-out retro 8090ies party. Now all i need is a matrix and i’ll start calling myself “the smooth operator”.

Wederom met de infamous dstruct posse. Dirty Brown takes a swing at designing t-shirts
for sale at this amazing music&art festival.

The model for this illustration i did for dimi magazine (Peter strauss) liked the result that much that he ordered a print on canvas. Here i photographed the finished work in his house. Im very satisfied with the results.

We got invited to VJ at the sand in Amsterdam with amazing DJ erick morillo. I did a special set for this event, the place was sold out and the party was all magic.

For the 2008 museum-night i got invited by the blaak10 gallery at wittedewith street to make a blacklite painting on a1 board based on the theme “set a light”. The rotterdam museumnight is a yearly event and always busy and fun. All the galleries and museums are open at night…Here is a picture and a avi file made by paul middelkoop at the blaak10.

I was asked by white party to VJ at their 2007 edition of WhiteParty at the Melkweg. This party was the official Amsterdam Gaypride afterparty. My co-pilot for the night was Mr. Janne Wolterbeek who was making additional visuals on the spot. This party kicked some serious ass! The GAY know how to party HARD!

I was asked to design and execute the painting for the redbull stage at the 2007 edition of DanceValley (the legendary outdoor electronic music event). For this job i invited staygoldroy, matthijs de valk and senser, together we executed this 10 meter high painting live and on the spot within 10 hours.

For RedBull i made these nice 50×50cm canvasses partially at home and partially on the spot at the 2007 edition of DanceValley festival. The canvasses were largely made using stencils in an edition of 50 and were given to people through the RedBull website later on.

This is the first illustration i did for Dimi magazine. Its a magazine on the cultural scene in Rotterdam. The article is about upcoming people in the Rotterdam theatre/dance/fashion and streetart scene. The text says: feed your talent.

For the office of ecological oil company “green cricket” we made this canvas

of their logo using only natural materials and paints. The size is

140 cm by 180 cm.
