Tulips At Hand

A bouquet of coloured glass tulips

My name is Jan Waanders. I am a Dutch photographer, currently living in Chisinau, Moldova. The Covid-19 pandemic finally allowed me the time to give photography a try myself, In September 2020, I started courses at the Kiev School of Photography and since then I have never looked back. There is only one thing that I regret: that I did not start earlier :-) Through my pictures I try to recreate the carefree, colorful, and warm world of my youth. I am inspired by Gauguin, painters of the pre-WW2 Ecole de Paris, and the Czech avant-garde photographers.
