He taught Art and English in high schools for 35 years. Author of five art books, and co-author of four more in Dutch, this is his ninth book.

Herman’s Exhibitions:

“My art has been the natural overflow of enjoying my 35 years of art teaching. It has been primarily motivated by a desire to bring religion, and particularly Jesus Christ, to an understandable level through a realistic style.”
