I started my project on Hyves in May 2008. Hyves is a social networking tool like facebook, friendster and linkedin.

 I asked people, initially unknown to me, to be my friend. If they accepted and added me to their group of friends, I was allowed to see the photographs in their profile. From these I picked one.

I then copied this photo with brushes and ink. After the drawing was finished, I made a digital image of it, which I posted on my own profile. Then I gave notice to my friend that his or her drawing was done. All drawings combined with the reactions and comments form one large work of art.

I've added new content and two new pages, Drawings and Editions, hope you like them!

"Show yourself: Going to the Etch": 'sHertogenbosch, het Kruithuis ( 22-04) and later on to Kampen, Koornmarktpoort ( 15-09)

On the 26th of May I will have a solo-show in the Drawing Centre Diepenheim, the work on the catalogue is finished and I'm looking forward to this printed document. It's been a while, since the last catalogue was made in 2003!

Working on a new interactive project for members of the Kunstvereniging Diepenheim, it will be called ´Lucky Dip Diepenheim´, and it will be a variation of the ´Stijn says Hey´-project. It will run one month and the members are invited to post me images of beloved persons, animals or things. Updates about the exact form and ways to inform anyone who´s interested in following the project will follow shortly!

Michiel Morel wrote a text about my work ( it's in Dutch) about Eindhoven and puts me alongside artists Hans Biezen, René Daniels and Piet Dirckx.  Onder de rook van Van Abbe (2): Piet Dirkx en Stijn Peeters in E’ven | Michiel Morel
