Career
[

Bech started his career in several areas but none satisfied him, until he found out he liked to paint and create objects of all kinds of materials. He was initially strongly influenced by the
COBRA
movement. Early in his career his talent was noticed by
Lucebert
, who saw one of Bech's first pieces and commented that whoever created it had talent which could be developed further as an independent artist.
[2]
As an
autodidactive artist
, he developed his own style which has incorporated various objects ? a brush, a chain ? anything he can think of with his creative mind.

In 2003, Bech had an exposition in the
Art Calvia Grand Casino
at
Mallorca, Spain
.
From October 2006 to June 2007 Bech was one of the artists involved in the "Taste of art" project where diners at the '
t Jagershuis
restaurant in
Ouderkerk aan de Amstel
dined off a plate he had designed and took the plate home.

In April 2007, Bech was involved in a project together with
Harold van Geerestein
