About the Author:

Willem Buis was born in 1930 in the Dutch countryside. After graduating from a commercial trade school, Buis fled to Argentina rather than serving in Holland's Army, which was embroiled in a war with Indonesia at the time. There he eked out a meager living selling paintings.

Six years later, he returned to Holland and continued to produce paintings. With money still tight, Buis resorted to painting on models who posed for no charge) when he could not buy canvas. Since the paintings were on models, Buis realized he could not hand the completed works on his walls. To capture and display the paintings, he borrowed a camera and continued to paint.

Now, the artist works on improving and perfecting his paintings, a process that will certainly never end.
