graduated from Technical Engineering School and began his
first paintings at that time. Shortly thereafter, he proceeded

and focused on in the mid-seventies. De Es' works from this
period have been featured in a variety of magazines. Americans

in Omni. In addition to his work as a painter, De Es is an
accomplished sculptor. The city of Bern, Switzerland exhibited
forty large De Es sculptures in an outdoor showing in 1991,
in commemoration of the city's eight-hundredth anniversary.
