Collage art by Burry Buermans

Hello my name is Burry Buermans. I am a Belgian artist (°1982) based in Portugal. As a child I had a curious eye for art and the innocent dream to become an artist one day. I never attended art school but always experimented with different art forms. For a long time I was looking for my own style and medium until I randomly ended up making collages. My life motto is “Chase your dreams, wherever they take you”, so I collected old Trabant cars, started a theatre company, organized and decorated my own parties, and hitchhiked around the world. During one of my trips in Panama, Latin America, I was shot by robbers. This shocking event strengthened my passion for life even more. Back in Belgium I worked as a teacher and coordinated a youth service. In the summer of 2012, I moved to Portugal to focus on my work as an artist, making collages, and fulfilling my last childhood dream. visit my website for more information: http://www.burry.be/ or my facebookpage to see the works in progress www.facebook.com/Burrycollage

I think this one is going to be the last one of this serie. I am working on these for more than a month now but still not quite sure how I am going to take them to the next level. A lot of ideas dough, so i'll need some time to experiment. #skull #butterfly #mariposa #papillion #collage #workinprogress #collage #excel #collagecollectiveco #collagewave https://www.instagram.com/p/BzztXt6lPJs/?igshid=1ag7f7lpaukpa

The main body is done, now it's time to focus on the smaller parts. Note that this is just the base layer that eventually will be covered up completely. #burrybuermans #funerart #hears #lijkwagen #corbiard #funeralcar #artcar #paintjob #red #rood #redcar #carmods #tuning https://www.instagram.com/p/BnBcPvCg1Qb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ubv3odubyhec
