Born in Werkendam, he studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts and the Higher Institute for Fine Arts in Antwerp in the 1950s where Professor Jos Hendrickx influenced the young artist greatly. Further inspiration was found in the works of Constant Permeke and Gustave De Smet.[2] He lived and worked in Holten since the 1960s.[3] Despite being known to work in isolation and hardly ever exhibiting, his work has received relative national recognition.[3]
