About Me

I work with models for my art, they help me to create and make the best storytelling art.
Looking for models for a collaboration.

Toshy creates a personal story with his art. Seducing climaxes, quotes and facts from the lives of well-known and less known people of the world, combined with a technically, recognizable and brilliant display of art. He combines his typographic graffiti skills with personal background and photography to create a new style of art “storytelling
art”.
His first canvas ‘Sade’ triggered a sea of emotions by its client. Shortly afterwards, Toshy gave his first exposition in Amsterdam where he sold his first artwork (2013).
His portraits, which Toshy describes as odes, show the world the depths that lie within people as individuals. A portrait is more than a snapshot, it’s about a person and his story of life. Toshy aims to trigger and inspire via his artworks and see the world as a podium to display art as a communication form without limitations. Each canvas is personally signed with the motto ‘The world is your stage’. Toshy is a writer, a photographer, an illustrator, a painter... but above all he’s a remarkable storytelling artist.
