Illustrations autumn and winter 2011

The reason I’m starting this blog is that MobileMe is turning into iCloud, so my old web page is going to disappear (because I’m not going to jump into the iCloud).

In the different pages (About, Art, Research) you can find some basic information on what I do. But I’ll also be posting illustrations, photos, thoughts about research and writing in the blog posts; But completely randomly and only as a part of this being a personal web page.

There are a lot of exciting things going on in my life right now. Next year I’ll finish two huge projects I’ve been working on for years (Book 1 and Thesis). And at the same time I want to have time for my family and taking care of myself. I want to have time for reading, dancing, seeing good films, playing games and traveling. I’m a mom, a geek, a thinker, a maker. Welcome to my little space in the web.
