- I was personally invited by:
- Karen Maskall
- My Pledge for Change: In the Spirit of Harmony with Our Planet
- ArtKids (our own artist Tamara!) makes unique and personal, handmade oil-paintings (and other works of art) inspired through drawings (spontaneous scratches) by children.
Usually we see the children grow about two feet, when they see their painting (made by our artist Tamara), and the parents use to be surprised to discover that they have an artist in the family. This tells we build up the self-confidence of children.
Since most people have been a child, or have children around, there is a good possibility to use the ArtKids-concept in PR-campaigns, educational projects, trainings, relation marketing, special and personal gifts and in charity projects.
- About Me:
- The "business tool" is: ArtKids makes (oil)paintings (and art) inspired by simple spontaneous made drawings by little children.
The program for life, I have been taught was:
1) good education
2) 40 years, 40 hours a week working for another.
3) retire
After working about sixteen year for social services (Amsterdam) I concluded I was nearly dead. The program didn't work for me. I stopped, and started working for myself, as a copywriter. After a few years being a copywriter it didn’t fulfil me either.
In the meantime I met Tamara (she's now my girl-friend, wife, and business-partner, and our artist). Some social worker told Tamara that Soraya (daughter of Tamara) wasn't happy. At school Soraya was always busy with other things.
After some sleepless nights Tamara found some drawings by Soraya, and Tamara saw big smiles on the faces of the puppets.
That inspired Tamara to paint. Soraya grew when she saw the paintings (recognition and attention). We tried the same with the drawings by the children of our relatives. The children's reactions were the same. The parents used to say things like: “We didn’t know we had an artist in the family.”
Tamara and I (Hans) noticed such happiness, and we decided to build up good concept to make the world happier and ourselves too.
Since then we show many children (and their parents) they have more talents….

First there was Earth and then there was Man. And Man reaped everything he could from our Earth but failed to "give back". And then there came a time of reckoning. And Man began to "give back"... Everything started to Change..... The World is changing. People are changing. And business has changed... Every business you find in our ethical directory is a giving business....giving back to Our Planet by working in the Spirit of Harmony with Earth. ...Every member on Pledging for Change is here because they believe in Giving Back in the Spirit of Harmony with Our Planet
Do all the good you can, By all the means you can, In all the ways you can, In all the places you can, At all the times you can, To all the people you can, As long as ever you can. -- John Wesley, "Letters of John Wesley"
Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centres of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. -- Robert F. Kennedy
