Rotterdam – Delftshaven – 31-03-17 (sold)
Situated at Rotterdam, Delftshaven is the old harbour entree for the city of Delft, at the north of Rotterdam. I wanted to do a drawing full of atmosperic depth but still with a bit of cubist styling in it.

A cubistic view on a bridge over the Hooigracht at The Hague, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands.
Bettie Page was an American pin-up of the 1950s that stood for her sexual liberation in an America that yet had to face the sexual revolution of the 1960s.
Another drawing by me of Bettie Page returning to surrealism again.
A portrait of my dad in roundistic forms. Always great to turn bushes and trees into round and abstract shapes.
I change from nudity to landscapes a lot and I find trees equally attractive.
With her slender body Bettie Page always has been a great model to put my project ’roundism’ on wheels. There’s not a single curve in her body that doesn’t makes me go cubistic.
Oss is a medium sized city in Noord-Bravant, Netherlands and I was in the local museum there (Jan Cunen) I had this view on Oss with the trees at the left of the drawing flowing into the clouds.
Another project of my roundism series.
An impressionistic view on Leiden, where I studied. I am often fascinated my reflections in water and there are so many canals to be found over there. The movement of the water is what I put as a central theme in this drawing.
I was attracted to the cubist quality of the planes that still offer a realistic / impressionistic view on a back alley in a small town called ‘Schoonhoven’, Netherlands.
A work in which I combined colour saturation with complementary colour schemes.
An experiment on how to open up forms as much as possible according to my style ’roundism’. I wanted to have the model ‘breathe’ the space around her as much as possible.
The style of roundism put into colours and open spheres. I strongly looked for an overall distribution of the colour scheme so that none of the colours used would be dominant over another
Another model in colour and in straight cubistic planes left open to breathe.
I took my dear colleague Julia Filament to the Mauritshuis, where I placed her in front of ‘The Girl with the pearl earring’ by Vermeer and rendered her cubistically.
Roundism put into a complementary colour scheme. The hardest thing was to balance it all so the purple wouldn’t overwhealm the yellow.
One from the series ‘sans titre’ depicting moviestars. This one is a tribute to Mary Pickford in some kind of cubistic roundish style.
Continuation of the roundism series, representing Mary Nolan, American actress and celebrity.
An experiment in coloration of roundish shapes, rendered with colour pencils only.
One of the ‘sans titre’ series I made. This one is Natalie Wood put in the style of cubism / roundism.
I was visiting the new established museum at estate ‘Voorlinden’ at Wassenaar, Netherlands and saw the old mansion next to the new museum building and this inspired be to combine them in a coloured pencil drawing.
One out of the series ‘sans titre’ after the moviestar ‘Gene Tierney’ in the roundism style.
This one is based on the swimming pool full of optical illusions at Museum ‘Voorlinden’ at Wassenaar, The Netherlands.
The town of Vlaardingen (near Rotterdam) depicted in roundish forms. This is a view on the harbour in the center with the ‘Grote Kerk’ (‘Big Church’) at the background.
Another example of the roundism series, ever continuing. This one is the conclusion of a series of 15 drawings on the same theme.
A cubistic / roundism kind of style of Schiedam, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands.
