Nudes
Alexandra Moreels – 11-05-15 (sold)
Next to a pastel I did a graphite pencil drawing as a commission. I made her slightly surrealistic with the flow lines hovering over her body.
Nude – 08-05-15
Variation 11 show a return to straight lines and planes. I wanted to put less stress on the body and more on the planes as a whole – in- and outside the body and communicating.
Nude – 05-05-15 (sold)
Variation nr 10 is an oddball. The flickering and the light bulbs in the joints almost create a kind of stellar constellation.
Nude – 03-05-15 (sold)
Variation nr 9 shows a further development and I felt more and more confident to show more. This one I found it to be a success and a prestudy for The Madonna of The Hague later that year.
Nude – 28-04-15 (sold)
This one already takes on the shape of today’s roundism. By blending / fading graphite I was able to get a very soft look.
Nude – 22-04-15 (sold)
A rather gloomy drawing but I liked doing it. It’s art deco rather than cubism I think.
Nude – 10-04-15 (sold)
Variation nr 3 being the roundism version. It’s in the U.S. now with a private collector.
Roundism – 02-03-15
Part of the roundism series. I wanted to create a kind of psychedelic effect around the buttocks of the woman.
Roundism – Bettie Page – 31-01-15 (sold)
A combination of my love for American pin-up and 1950s celebrity Bettie Page and roundism.
Reclining nude – 28-01-15
A somehow expressionistic kind of pastel drawing that came from a live drawing session with my favorite model.
Reclining nude – 16-11-14
A sort of impressionism, clairobscur meets a slight cubistic edge of thing I think. I like when it contains different ‘isms’.
A 4th tribute to Man Ray (Lee Miller) – 03-11-14 (sold)
Another cubistic tribute to Man Ray. This one is with a private collector from the United States.
Roundism – 30-10-14
An early roundism drawing and looking for shapes stemming from the body into the negative space.
Reclining nude – 10-11-14
I was hovering over my regular model and was charmed by this unusual angle. Perhaps you can forgive me when I tell you that I made the pastel from a picture I took that session because otherwise I had to keep my head upside down the whole time.
Round cubism – 14-08-14 (sold)
A piece that stands on its own because I found it not to be a part of the ‘birth of new cubism series. In its sort it’s the birth of ’roundism’, sprouting from the ‘birth of new cubism’ series that survived right till this day.
The birth of new cubism 28-07-14 (sold)
Part of the ‘birth of new cubism series’. It’s now in the United States with a private collector of my works.
The birth of new cubism – 27-07-14
Part of the ‘birth of new cubism’ series. For this one I used an old photograph I suspect might be from the 1950s.
The birth of new cubism 3 – 28-04-14 (sold)
Another drawing that marks the beginning of my search for a renewal of cubism.
The birth of new cubism 1 – 14-06-14 (sold)
The first of two drawings at one day on the same theme. This one is the minimalistic cubist one.
The Birth of New Cubism 2 – 01-05-14 (sold)
After the start of the ‘birth of new cubism’ series I got the hang of it and sometimes made 2 drawings at one day just to give shape to my ideas.
The birth of new cubism – 01-05-14 – 1 (sold)
A cubistic drawing in which I started to divide the negative space into planes by extending the dimensions of body parts to the borders of the paper.
Nude 15 (2014) (sold)
A pastel drawing of a nude in red with only a tiny touch of yellow.
Nude couple (2013) (sold)
A quick sketch of an old picture I once found that I quickly sold to one of my students.
Adam & Eve – 08-05-13 (sold)
Found a pastel in the ‘garbage’ map of pastels that I found to be not very bad after all. Takes me back a couple of years when I did a lot of hatching.
Pastel Study 04 (2013)
A classic pastel study of a classic sort of model pose. I liked the diagonals.
