T.VIS

Toon has chosen to dedicate his time and energy entirely to creating, far away from the spotlight of exhibitions and promotion. This makes him the 'real' artist in the eyes of many: someone driven by a pure love for the work.

Encouraged by his family and children, he is now stepping forward as an artist after 60 years. He invites you to come by; the work may be seen, sold, and distributed, so that it may have a second life in the light of others.

Send a message and stop by on Saturday or Sunday morning, or make a personal appointment. There is still a multitude of work to view in the studio.

Toon is a warm and committed person. With sparkling humor and a genuine interest in his fellow man, he is a beloved figure in his village and within his family and circle of friends. His musical talent, particularly his improvisations on the piano and his own compositions, reveals yet another dimension of his versatile abilities.

The works of Toon Vis can be classified as lyrical expressionism, characterized by spontaneous brushstrokes. Behind this apparent spontaneity, however, lies deep thought and deliberation. For when is a work finished? Where does a dark touch add strength, or where does a contrasting color break the monotony? These are all decisions made with great care.

This website offers a rare glimpse into the rich and inspiring world of Toon Vis, which was closed until now – a world where art and life flow seamlessly into one another.
