In February 2025, the local newspaper of the Staatsliedenbuurt in Westerpark, Amsterdam, published an article about my atelier Bastiaen.Art
The article highlights the atelier space, my portrait paintings, sources of inspiration, workshops, my work for the foundation Marline Fritzius, and my participation in the TV contest Sterren op het Doek, where I had the honor of painting Rob Kemps—who ultimately chose my portrait to take home.
A heartfelt thank you to ‘de Staatskrant‘ for the article and support.
And my deepest gratitude to Franco for his unwavering support and invaluable advice. Without him, the studio would not be as beautiful as it is today.
