With an accurate hand, directly in ink and without a sketch, he makes a very similar caricature in a few minutes. For the bystanders it is fascinating to see how out of a few lines that seem to represent nothing, the drawn person suddenly emerges.

Erik was born in The Hague in 1953, and was already drawing before he could talk. With an accurate hand, directly in ink and without a sketch, he makes a very similar caricature in just a few minutes. For the bystanders it is fascinating to see how out of a few lines that seem to represent nothing, the drawn person suddenly emerges. A performance of this speed artist is a great success at company events, fairs, and other festivities. He can also, if one wishes, draw a realistic, similar portrait. That hardly takes longer than a caricature. A drawing takes about 5 minutes, the size is 35 by 50 centimeters.
Erik usually draws from a fixed place. On request, hobby, work or anything else that belongs to the person is drawn in a funny way. A drawing is immediately set up with an ink pen without a sketch, after which it is usually finished with a pencil pen.
