Jos lives and works in Nuth, near Maastricht, where he has got his own studio. At a young age he discovered his love for Art. He studied languages and after that he mastered his studies to become a certified restorer of paintings. He followed his training by Etienne Mahieu, who supervised the technical analyses of the Mesdag panorama in The Hague and the works of Vincent van Gogh at the Kröller-Müller museum. This has become his inspiration to make the transition to visual artist.
