Theme of May: Islands
This weekend our eldest daughter moved to Texel. She
is going to work in a hotel as a trainee. Texel is the
largest of the Dutch Wadden Islands.
To go to the island you need to take a boat from Den
Helder. The distance between Den Helder and Texel is
4,2 km and it takes about 20 minutes to cross the water. Of course it is not the end of the world, but for me it feels a
little bit like this.
This month you can make your own island. You don't need to draw the sea or clouds, just the island will do.
I will place all the islands in a big blue sea.
What will your island look like? Is it
abandoned, spooky, romantic or fancy with a shopping mall? You can send in your artwork until the 23th of May. See you on your
island!

Theme of April: The new King
On the 30th of April we will have a new King!
Prince Willem-Alexander, the Netherland’s first king since
1890, will be 46 when he ascends to the throne.
After 33 years he will take over the job from his mother
Queen Beatrix.
Although many expected the prince would take the title
Willem IV, the prince will be known as king Willem-Alexander and his wife Máxima
will have the title queen.
Of course we will celebrate this on the blog as well.
So let's make a nice royal party! What can you make? You can draw a King, or a crown, bake a
cake, or create a royal decoration.
Don't let anything stand in your way to create something
special for this event!
You can send in your artwork untill the 27th of April as
we will launch the gallery on the 30th of April!
