ILLUSTRATOR & ANIMATOR

I’m a reformed content criminal. My content crimes are many, committed in innocence, but crimes nonetheless.

My confession: I have put out a lot of very boring content in my life. Photographs, videos, writing, audio, drawings—I’ve dirtied all of them. Each robbed people of time and killed their spirits.

I try not to do that anymore. And I help my clients avoid making the missteps I made.

My story in quicktime:

➤ Dutch Englishman living in Ireland.

➤ Former maritime journalist.

➤ Burned-out award-winning photographer.

➤ Ignorant food grower & wine drinker.

➤ Plogger. (Picks up litter while running.)

➤ Anxious person.

➤ Timid comedian with small ambitions.

➤ Cancer survivor. So far.

➤ Producer and publisher of Spierkater’s Gallimaufry.

➤ Someone who learned late in life that what people (including me) think about my work is unimportant compared with the importance of it being made in the first place.

➤ I run a small content creation and content marketing agency, called Show and Tell Communications. We specialise in email newsletters for food and drink businesses.

But I am also an independent imagination for hire. Someone who will help your content stick to the senses and delight the souls of the people you want to reach. Want to work together?
