Evert Pieters started his studies at the Academy in Antwerp, before moving to Amsterdam to enter the atelier of Theodoor Verstraete (1850-1907). The artist later travelled to Paris, London and Scotland before settling in Laren in 1917. The painter and the Belgian sculptor Alphonse van Beurden (1854-1938) were part of the same young art circle in Antwerp: Als Ik Kan.
