It's been at least 6 years since Kristof Van Beversluys (Studio kri kri) had the idea to start painting this moon. The concept was quite clear from the start. “However, I'm not much of a painter. I had painted 3 out of 4 quadrants (the lighter parts) when it was all stranded. I was stuck. I ignored it for a couple of years. I think I moved this half baked painting 4 times. Going from one studio to the next one. The longer I waited the harder it was to finish it up” - described Kristof.
When Gust from De Makers asked Kristof to collaborate on their "Makers of the month", he had a couple of ideas. “Finishing up this piece was the most scary thing on the list. You can guess which one he preferred right?” - says Kristof. Yep, he loved it. All of a sudden, he had only a couple of weeks to finish what he had been putting off for years. With fresh courage and a clear deadline, he started on the remaining 25% of the painting.
