Model session @ Rotterdam – 16-10-17
A 15 min. sketch I made yesterday during a live model session at Rotterdam.
Nudes
Nude – 01-10-17
A rather loose cubistic sketch done with colour pencils. For the 4th time in a row I used the same (indian) model. Her skin allows me to use a lot of yellow which I counterbalanced with edgy purple planes.
Model – 18-09-17
A 5 min. sketch I made yesterday at a session at Rotterdam. Fun to do short positions again.

An impressionistic approach to live model sketching with one of my favorite models – done at Voorburg. Netherlands.
Into the light – 15-06-17
This pastel drawing ‘Into the Light – 15-06-17’ is something different. Enter the gloom or into the light?

Henriëtte Sibie – 21-01-17
In The Netherlands there isn’t a single artist who hasn’t sketched Henriëtte Sibie during a live session.
Bettie Page – 16-01-17 (sold)
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.
Roundism – 30-12-16 (tribute to Anita Ekberg) (sold)
Another project of my roundism series.
Nude – 21-12-16 (sold)
Did this one for a Chinese collector who wanted to have a copy the same pastel from 2012 which he acquired as well. The Chinese are into realistic western art nowadays.
Nude – 07-12-16 (sold)
A work in which I combined colour saturation with complementary colour schemes.
Roundism – 26-11-16
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.
Roundism – 20-11-16
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
Nude – 11-11-16
This colored pencil drawing ‘Nude – 11-11-16’ is a cubist female form again. I took the inside out, the outside in from a visual perspective.
Roundism – 29-10-16 (sold)
Roundism put into a complementary colour scheme. The hardest thing was to balance it all so the purple wouldn’t overwhealm the yellow.
Roundism – 12-10-16 (sold)
An experiment in coloration of roundish shapes, rendered with colour pencils only.
Roundism – 13-07-16 (sold)
Part of the roundism series. This one is with a private collector in the United States.
Roundism – 08-07-16
Part of the roundism series and a continuation of the search of opening up structures like a female body by connecting parts tonally.
Roundism – 05-07-16 (sold)
In this piece from the roundism series I take a step further and mess about with form distortion The cuts in the body parts are more extreme than in previous drawings.
Roundism – 01-07-16 (sold)
I liked the jumping quality of the model making a jump and tried to emphasize the round shapes – like the breasts and buttocks – popping out.
Nude – 07-06-16 (sold)
Part of the roundism series. This one is all about the central piece of the figure, communicating with the negative space around it.
Nude – 03-06-16
Part of the roundism series but is marked by some kind of Man Ray photographical surrealism as well.
Nude – 27-05-16
A drawing through which I succeeded to base my principles of my kind of cubism – roundism.
Nude – 25-05-16
Part of the roundism series. It’s almost realistic but still to be called styled in a cubistic way.
