Nude – 25-01-16
I strived to draw a body through which you could wander about in light without boundaries.
Drawings
Nude – 22-01-16
Part of the roundism series. I liked the edgy feel to the knees creating distinct forms in the negative space around them.
Nude – 19-01-16
I liked the sausage-form quality of the model reclining on the floor and immediately saw the roundism-styled shapes in it.
Nude – 15-01-16
A cubist approach to this one. I had so much negative space left that I had to come up with something. I decided to make a kind of super trooper or sun.
Nude – 13-01-16 (sold)
Part of the roundism series. I was charmed by the foreshortening in the back and the buttocks of the woman reclining and I wanted to do a combination of straight and round planes and forms.
Nude – 03-01-16 (sold)
Part of the roundism series and in the hands of a private collector now.
The Hague Forest – 28-12-15
Part of the roundism series. The Hague Forest (Haagse Bos) is around the corner from where I live.
Rijswijk – 04-12-15
The straight lines of the church and the difference in mass between the planes and the those of the branches, inspired to make this piece.
The Court’s pond (De Hofvijver) – 26-11-15
The pond next to the dutch house of Parliament and the Prime Minister’s tower at the left, at The Hague, Netherlands.
Culemborg – 21-11-15
I was lead by the cubist qualities of the Streets of Culemborg, a city in the centre of the Netherlands, in Gelderland.
Leiden – 16-11-15 (sold)
Leiden is famous for its canals and I makes me sentimental when they remind me of my time as a student, walking back drunk from a party feeling sick smelling the water.
Leiden – 06-11-15
A graphite pencil drawing of Leiden, city at Zuid-Holland, Netherlands, where I lived for a long time and this site is to be seen from the Burcht (Castle) looking at the Hartebrugkerk (church).
Leiden – 04-11-15
The city where I studied international and european competition law and where I lived for 11 years.
Haagse Bos (The Hague Forest) – 02-11-15
The central pond at the Haagse Bos (The Hague Forest). I wanted to make the reflections look convincing even though there was plenty of figurative abstraction.
Het Binnenhof (The Inner Court) – 29-10-15
I wanted to do the dutch parliament in my roundish style without loosing the characteristics of the facade and buildings.
Royal Estate ‘De Horsten’ – 23-10-15
A rather gloomy drawing but I liked doing it. It’s art deco rather than cubism I think.
Filosofendal (Valley of the Philosophers) – 20-10-15
Breaking up a forest into planes of light, darkness and cubistic forms. It’s called ‘The Valley of the Philisophers’ (Filosofendal) at Berg en Dal, near Nijmegen, Gelderland, Netherlands (Nederland).
Nude – 17-10-15 (sold)
I liked doing the facets like a diamond in this one. It’s with a private collector now.
Nude – 12-10-15
The reference picture was not too great so I had to add a lot of things to it, like the moon and in the body.
Nude – 07-10-15 (sold)
I liked the model being thin so I could easily detect cubistic planes.
Nude – 04-10-15
When I saw this photo for the first time I didn’t know what to think of it. I do not relate to so-called romantic art of ballerinas and dancers striking great poses.
Nude – 25-09-15
I experimented with stronger lines and edges like featured on a futuristic machine.
Nude – 17-09-15
Part of the roundism series. I wanted to have it as abstract as possible without losing the essence of the female body.
Nude – 12-09-15
I loved to let the women’s forms flow into the sheets around and let them be a part of the body. Mass that desintegrates into lines around it.
Nude – 03-09-15 (sold)
I particularly like this one because of the cubist quality of the abdomen muscles and the compositionary division of the negative space in big planes.
Nude – 28-08-15
This cubism-like drawing look rather like stained glass to me, now I look back at it.
