Carnaval Unmasked: I thought the most moving theatrical parade in the world deserved a moving poster, so I created one.

Check out the animated poster for Brabantsedag 2025, 'Carnaval Ontmaskerd'!

Many thanks to:

🖤 Maestro @dreikelvin.bsky.social for the music

The darkness... an experiment painting with mostly black ink to practise my value control. Also concept art for a spooky concept WanQing Wang and I were developing a cuppa years ago

Finished painting for the cover of Vincent Neyt’s PhD on @stephenking.bsky.social's It. Rather than basing it on one of the adaptations’ Pennywise designs, I wanted to create a combination of the clowns mentioned in the book: Bozo, Ronald McDonald & Clarabell.

Creating a little animated visual using elements inked by hand is something I had wanted to try. The music video “Johnny and the Devil” we made with WanQing Wang at Matte! Nande? being selected for a film festival called "Spookfest" seemed like a good reason to play with ink and brush 👻

What going through therapy felt like

It's this one, isn't it?

QRT with your fanart

I don't remember August being *that* Avalanches heavy, but I'm not complaining

Yes give me that indie sleaze pop

I'm enjoying these wacky genre names on #spotifywrapped

For over 10 years I had the wish to use animation on a parade float. Brabantsedag, a theatrical history parade in the Netherlands, finally presented the perfect use

It's one of my favorite creations I've been a part of as a co-creator so far

Float built by De Rijten

What 2 seconds of hand-drawn animation looks like 🎨🖌

For those who like peeking behind the scenes, here's the pencil linetest of this animation walkcycle

Whale Sneakers - would you buy a pair?

I aim to play more with traditional techniques in my animations, and to practise watercolors more. So I combined these two goals to clean up a walkcycle I animated with our former intern Jil Siu.

The new Brabantsedag Poster! I created it. Thanks to Brabantsedag for asking and trusting me to do so 🖤

Rumor has it there is also a moving version. But we’ll have to wait and see if those rumors prove to be true…
