Pinterest Passion











Next to this blog, I also use Pinterest. For those of you who have never heard of Pinterest; I will explain a bit about it. 
It's an online platform were you can create and view moodboards with personal interests and inspiration. Not only on the Pinterest platform itself you can find these things, but also on some websites. They have made a button where you can "pin" the thing that you like (like the twitter or facebook button) and share it with the people who follow your moodboard or you as a person. If you find a moodboard or a person inspiring, you have the option to follow that person and see what they are "pinning" on your home screen. If I got you all exited.. check out Pinterest right here! If you already have a Pinterest account and want to follow me.. click here!

Good luck with "pinning"!

The Netherlands holds an awesome load of inspiring artist. Every month I will pick out one of my favorits and tell you a little bit about them.

This month, I came across the artist Paul Klemann. His method of making his arts is a little different then you're used to; he makes drawings of his dreams. 


He begun in 1993, taking short notes at night, when he wakes up from his sleep, and transforming them into drawings in the daytime. He writes on his website, that dreams are a sublime translation of who you really are. They tell something about your innermost being. "Your dream world is a free world, there are laws and rules but you will never be called to account".

In the video; De Bovenkamer, made by Centraal Museum, he explains his method of capturing dreams and transforming them to paintings and drawings. If you want to see the video, click here!
