Born in 1950 the author of this website (Johan Bil) began his life as a farmers son in the neighbourhood of Zierikzee.
When he was fifteen he began to work with his father on the farm. He studied agriculture and was highly interested in everything about soil and plants.
When the opportunity came he moved to Zevenaar. Up there he worked for three seasons on a biological vegetable and fruit company. Here he learned much about organic farming. After three years he could join a gardening company back in Zeeland. So he worked for the next twenty-six years as a gardener and arborist.
With his love for nature and woods he was lucky to work most of those years in the woodland ecosystems of the Veerse Meer.
According to his interests Johan began in the early nineties a training maintaining nature reserve. It was in that training when for the first time he was faced with computers.
Soon he discovered that with computers you can do much, including drawing. And more than that: you can draw three-dimensional.
Nowadays retired of work Johan has plenty of time to enjoy his hobbies.
On this website he shows what he is doing.
