Inspired by 17th and 18th century master painters, but also by contemporary Dutch realists. He is driven by perfection in search of ultimate realism. Subjects varying from fruits and flowers to toys and antiques, all painted on the canvas exclusively in oilpaint. He devotes much attention to carefully choosing all these subjects and arranging its composition. The interplay of light and shadow unfolds dramatically in each of his work.
