Biography

According to Houbraken he learned to paint from his father, Johannes Vollevens. According to the RKD, in 1713 he became a member, and in 1748, he became deacon of the Confrerie Pictura. His selfportrait from 1754 is still in their collection (today the Koninklijke Academie van Beeldende Kunsten KABK). His pupils were Arent Schaasberg and Adriana Verbruggen.
