Art & Literature
Quite some years ago, as a kid, I was quite involved in 3d design. Nowadays I don't do that anymore but still do I enjoy graphics design, but now more in aimed at web and photos. Most of the graphics on my webpages and the UniLang webpage have been designed by me using The Gimp. So I really enjoy graphics design. Below you can find some of my art, both recent as well as ancient:

Literature
Another hobby of mine, which in a way can also be considered art, is writing (short) stories and collection quotes. I've collected a huge collection of quotes over time which I'll present on this website, note that the quotes are not all in english but there are also dutch, spanish, french and german quotes. Also note that I only collected quotes that have truth and wisdom in them, unlike merely humerous ones. You can find my collection of quotes in the publications section below.
On occasion I also enjoy writing. As a kid I already wrote science fiction stories, and I tried to write a novel titled "The Wall", which never got finished. Moreover, I also wrote several short stories. You will find them in the publications section below.
