Patrick van de Ven

Patrick is a gifted twister with an artistic background (Music Technology at the Art Academy). Patrick entertained for many years before he began working with balloons in 2002. Since then he has become one of the most original balloon artists working today. He has a vast range of work (check out his bhq profile). His models are always original, innovative and eye-catching. He approaches many of his designs from very new angles using techniques that others would never have thought of. While many balloon artists struggle to think outside of the box, noone has told Patrick that there is a box!

Patrick is a moderator and favourite contributor on the MBD2.com forum. Always willing to share his designs, photos, instructions and tips.

Patrick now has several awards and achievments under his belt I expect these to be the first of many to come.
