I haven’t got the faintest idea on how many people visit or have visited this blog, but I want to thank you for your attention. After having served me faithfully for over a year, it’s curtains for this blog. I finally have my own website, with a proper web address. You can view my work there in a higher resolution and in a lighter environment. Once again, thank you and I hope to see you on www.blueboost.nl
I made this series of illustrations to serve as a decorative border on a certifictate. The certificate was a gift to a friend of mine, and they depict things we’ve experienced together. I only used black and cyan, one of my favorite colour combinations.

One of my life goals is achieved! I’ve always wanted to design a skate board deck. So I gave myself the assignment to design one and have it produced. I had a friend of my adhere the grip tape (thank you, you know who you are) and now it’s up for sale!
This guy was sitting in a bar in my home town. We sat, talked and drunk a while and I asked if I could photograph him ’cause I thought he had an expressive face. He agreed, and this is the result.

Since my first name is Tommy and my dad used to call me Tommyboy ánd I’m a fan of old skool hip-hop formation House of Pain, you can well imagine I love the fact that their records came out on Tommy Boy Records. I wanted a new facebook avatar (and I change it a LOT), so I took the Tommy Boy logo and went away with it in Photoshop, with this as a result.
If you’d like to add me on facebook by the way, here’s my page:

I was working on an invition for a relation of mine, but I realised that it was to far out there, so I didn’t even bother to present it. I did want to share it with you though.
I was testing some flash methods and different undergrounds for pack shots today, and I used two of my favourite material posessions as models. They have both lived with me for some time now -the glasses longer than the iPod- so I used photoshop to make them look brand new again.

This is my collection of pictures of what -in my opinon- defines the essence of the City of Rotterdam. This collection is ever growing and I aim to exhibit it, once it is substantial enough.

This is the first panorama picture I’ve done for a paying customer. It’s the Kop van Zuid area in Rotterdam, and it’s a photo merge of 12 individual takes. I used photoshop to stitch everything together. The picture is now hanging on the wall in my customers office, measuring 200 x 60 cm, plotted on high quality canvas in full resolution!
I have been drawing skulls since I was 7 years old and in my pirate-phase. And I have been doing so ever since. I always drew skulls by hand and just recently decided to do one digital.
A friend of mine was revising his Jackson Stealth EX Professional guitar and I offered to make a design for it. I was inspired by an article in National Geographic Magazine on the catacombs in Paris, stacked with skulls and bones, so I digitally drew a ‘pile’ of skulls to make a pattern. I made a Photoshop impression so he could see the result and it went into production shortly after. It has turned out great, thanks to my friends at The Letterfreak [www.letterfreak.nl].
These pics are made with a smartphone, so they’re not as sharp as you’d expect me to make ‘em. I intend to make a proper studio pic of the guitar once its completely finished!
