map-pin United States

I was born in Oostende, Belgium. and as a teenager attended the "Academy of Arts" in Brugge, Belgium. I love art, especially the Impressionism and the Flemish painters. Knitting was one of my Mom’s favorite pass times and as a result it influenced my skills in knitting at a very young age. I moved to the US in my early twenties and have lived here since then. I recently retired from chemical engineering. I now have plenty of time to spend on what I love doing: knitting, photography, drawing, painting, walking, admiring nature, reading (mostly about art), vacationing.
My knitting is inspired by my love for colors, having to create things and mostly by my Mom.
