Alles veranderde

I started painting on paper and everything changed. Such a simple shift made a world of difference! It’s hard to explain in just a few words, but I became completely hooked. I’m genuinely enthusiastic and eager to share this with others. I encourage everyone to give it a go. Just try it! Of course, I still paint on board or canvas now and then, but working on paper has made it all feel more fun.

Een beetje over Pete

Over the years, I’ve developed a range of art workshops designed to help people build their skills and confidence. These sessions are grounded in practical exercises, honest critique, and a shared sense of discovery. Whether you’re picking up a brush for the first time or returning to a long-lost practice.

Workshops variëren van korte teambuildingsessies tot meerdaagse intensieve schildercursussen, zowel in Nederland als in het buitenland. Mijn doel is om een ruimte te creëren waar mensen zich vrij voelen om risico's te nemen, te experimenteren, plezier te hebben en te groeien.

Ik geef ook een inkijkje in mijn eigen praktijk in de videoserie Paint with Pete. Deze serie biedt een kijkje achter de schermen van hoe mijn schilderijen tot stand komen, van de eerste schets tot de laatste puntjes. Paint with Pete offering an inside look at how paintings come together, from first sketch to final touches.

If you’re curious, creative, or just ready to shake off the rules and make a mess then you’re in the right place.
