Hamersma: Inspired with our Environment

This book is a biography of a true artist whose philosophy is relevant to artists and writers everywhere.His life is an example of determination and perseverance: two essential qualities for any artist. Despite having to hold down a succession of day jobs to feed his family he stayed focused on his art and took giant, daring strides in colour, style and audacity. Society and the Art World shunned him, mostly, but he barged on with each idea, gaining success in some solo exhibitions and securing his work in galleries and museum collections worldwide. This book describes Hamersma's life and attitude to the environment which he embraced - with great gusto - like everything else in his life.
