my spread page at 'de leeswelp', which is the only magazine in Flanders that is fully dedicated to books for young people. They give a monthly inventory of what is new and interesting on the children's books market. A while ago, I was one of the three winners of the first edition of an annual competition for young Belgian illustrators. The competition is called 'Goed Voor Druk', it's an initiative by 'De Leeswelp' and the 'VIC', the Flemish Illustrators Club. The jury, consisting of Chris Bulcaen, Sabien Clement, Jen de Groeve, Koen Sels and Klaas Verplancke, chose my work alongside of that of Korneel Detailleur and Karolien Vanderstappen.
