About me
Johan Huijzer was born on 24 September 1964 in Sliedrecht, Netherlands.
His works of art are very powerful, merry and colourful. A very inspiring own style that is characterized in the world of art as the Pop Art style.
With this style Johan has captured many a heart. Private individuals, companies and galleries at home and abroad already own a real Johan
Johan draws his inspiration from all day things for example from television, newspapers, magazines, expressions or events. Basically from everything that he sees or hears around him.
Johan Huijzer also issues various objects of art and business gifts like original ceramics and sculptures.
Bespoke orders are negotiable. Some examples of leading national and international enterprises are SBS Broadcasting Group, BMW Breeman, Loyens & Loeff, Vacuvin, Fortis, Herman den Blijker, Westin and Starwood hotels, Jan des Bouvrie, McDonalds and many others.
Johan works free of charge for various charities like Kika, Dada foundation, Liliane foundation, Sharing Succes, Heartbeat, Villa Pardoes and Jack Rabitt Foundation. Johan donates his own works of art for auctioning and the full proceeds go to the charities.
After more than 15 years Johan advanced in April 2018 into his beloved Contemporary art style to express his artistic skills on canvas.
This already pays off and his new Contemporary art style was valued by art experts in no time.
So from now on you can enjoy various styles in art from the artist
