Last week me and my new BF Kim Welling had great fun at the opening of Fred & Guus‘s Pop Up Gallery.

I already sold a piece but happened to end up with some cute little PasToe sidetables (Fred & Guus are also selling the loveliest second hand designer items)… how did that happen?!

So much for earning a living ;).

To all of you: Go! And buy! (of course this could translate as: please support young artists…)

My favourite art business in Utrecht is opening up shop!

Fred&Guus is dedicated to exhibiting and selling art from Utrecht. Especially/ also making way for the artist with a psychiatric background. As someone who has worked in psychiatry for almost a decade of course this speaks to me very loudly!

They’ve asked me to join in on their shop adventure, selling my graphical prints: the not-so-perfect-people prints and Mr Robot in their “Pop Up Gallery” (“pop” = Dutch for doll, hence the cool flyer ;)).

My city, Utrecht, is getting better and better everyday.

So many creative things are going on. Temporary stores and galleries are popping-up everywhere. The city is bubbling with energy this spring.

DepARTmentSTORE is already welcoming it’s fourth edition. Yesterday me and Mr Rockstar went to have a look and had to restrain ourselves from not buying every second thing we saw.
