About “Looking for Paradise” 

Often you’ll see (gay)men as the main topic in his work. Men who are striving to find their luck, challenges and essence of life. 

His inspiration is found in pictures on Instagram and several dating sites. In the past Hans painted those men before, however now you’ll find them alone in the overwhelming beauty of nature. They traveled the world to get connected with a paradise world, our earth and the cosmos. 

Now they go back to their origin and nature to find themselves. Hans: ‘I captured their beauty, masculinity, softness, power, intimacy, and desires’.
