Thursday at Polder Breebaart bordering the Dutch Waddensea / Dollard: hundreds of spoonbills, avocets and lapwings resting in the brackish lake, right in front of the bird watchers hut. Perfect drawing opportunity… 🪶

“De patatgeneratie” (‘The fast food generation’). #Linocut #reductionprint, 6 layers with 11 colours of ink. A bunch of gulls dancing in the air, but looking closer you’ll see that one of them stole a French fry🍟 (‘patatje’ in Dutch). Gulls fascinate me. They are loud and full of personality. 🪶
