New Letterhead
A new year, a new design for my letters and invoices. The letterhead contains two pictures that are playfully mirrored and stand for my work as a visual artist (drawing and painting) and as an art teacher.
‘Snackplek’, a new series for Argus
First drawing of the new year, starting with a new series on the back page of Argus: ‘snackplek’ (a made up word, meaning ‘place to snack’).
King Gözleme, Albert Cuypstraat, Amsterdam
These Gözleme (Turkish filled pancakes) with feta, spinach, potato and / or minced meat are heart-warmingly delicious. When I am on the Albert Cuyp Market, I am not able to ignore this stall without ordering anything from the ladies.
Sold at the Christmas Sale
This line drawing (pen on paper) of our late mayor Eberhard van der Laan was sold at WG KUNST Kerst Sale 2019 and found a home in the city of Amsterdam.

Christmas Stars – exhibition at CBK Zuidoost
From Saturday December 14th up until (and including) Saturday January 4th 2020, you can fully enjoy an exhibition of works of art from the CBK Zuidoost collection, compiled by staff, partners, customers, CKB ZOYoung, friends and acquaintances of CBK Zuidoost. Just imagine that these “Christmas stars” could just come and shine inside your house.
Lucy Hooft, who works at the gallery, chose this portrait I made during my Artist Resicency at BijlmAIR in 2017:
Woman with white headscarf, © Maartje Jaquet 2017
While I was there I had the honor to be invited to also choose a work of art for the exhibition. I fell for this painting by friend and fellow artist Rinaldo Klas, because we have recently worked together in Suriname and will be working together in the future again soon! And I love it f course. It will be on show in the same exhibition, opening tomorrow:
