About the Artist

My name is Hannah Jong, some people call me Fynn.

I was educated at the Academy of Arts "Minerva" in the city of Groningen in the Netherlands. I have a double education at the Academy.
The first time I got my teachers-license and I studied drawing, painting and graphic arts next to that.
The second time my main subject was photography and, next to that,
graphic arts with Lithography as a specialism. I combine my work as an independent artist with my job as an high-school art teacher.

I have been an animal-lover all my life and throughout the years animals have
manifested themselves as wonderful models in my work.
I am, myself, the proud owner of a brilliant border collie, a beautiful strong horse,
a bossy little pony and an obstinate cat.
When I'm not working I like to spend my time in the fields on foot or on horseback but always in the company of my dog Chip.
