Oil Paintings

Nina – 12-10-23
This oil painting ‘Nina – 13-10-23’ follows a prestudy I made last August. As stated before, she is a great model with a gorgeous body.

Neo Deco – 10-08-23
This oil painting ‘Neo Deo – 10-08-23’ follows a day later after my drawing ‘Nina – 09-08-23’. Two projects almost finished at the same time.

Neo Deco – 30-07-23
This oil painting ‘Neo Deco – 30-07-23’ is an elaboration of my graphite pencil drawing ‘Art Deco – 23-08-22’.

Neo Deco – 04-07-23
This oil painting ‘Neo Deco – 04-07-23’ is the second one in the series under the same name. The first one was a first attempt to put my ever growing series into color.

Neo Deco – 10-06-23
This oil painting ‘Neo Deco – 10-06-23’ feels like a continuation of last year’s cubist ones, interrupted by two grand pieces.

Psyche & Amor – 23-05-23
This oil painting ‘Psyche & Amor – 24-05-23’ is finished finally. Long overdue I must say. It took way more time than expected.

Melina Noëlle – 18-04-23
This oil ‘Melina Noëlle – 18-03-23’ is the result of a long search for perfection.

Art Deco Nude – 14-08-22
This oil painting ‘Art Deco Nude – 14-08-22’ is based on my graphite pencil drawing ‘Art Deco Nude – 05-08-22’. I liked that one and saw the potential for an oil.

Roundism – 07-08-22
This work is a conversion of Roundism – 07-08-21 into oil. For the appreciation of the initial reference picture I refer to that.

Homage to Eugène Durieu’s Seated Female Nude – 02-08-22
Surely it is time to pay homage to Eugène Durieu, especially his photograph of a seated female nude. This time I found it was time to return to straight cubist planes after the latest anaglyphical experiment.

anaglyphical roundism – 27-07-22
This oil painting Anaglyphical Roundism – 27-07-22 is my next project after ‘Golden – 18-07-22’. That one kicked up a lot of dust. Of course I like to vary so this time it was all about cubist styling again.

Golden – 18-07-22
Golden is my new project I finished just ago. I thought it was time to extend the Golden series with another oil paint. Golden – 18-05-22 was the last one and I didn’t know what forms to solarize and to style cubistically next.

Blue Velvet – 09-07-22
Blue Velvet is my next one after the more comprehensive work on Geesje Kwak. Time for an elaboration of a previous drawing Solarised Roundism – 01-07-22.

Geesje Kwak and the Secret of the Universe – 28-06-22
This oil painting ‘Geesje Kwak and the Secret of the Universe – 28-06-22’ is my second one. Geesje lends herself to a grand but time consuming elaboration in oil paint. Must be her beauty as well as the lush kimonos.

Golden – 18-05-22
This painting in the Golden Series was designed to give the spectator a most intense ‘yellow’ experience.

Anaglyphical Roundism – 12-05-22
This oil painting in the Roundism series is an elaboration of my graphite pencil drawing ‘Roundism – 25-12-17’.

Fox the Fox – 04-05-22
Fox the Fox -04-05-22 is an elaboration of a graphite pencil drawing Nude – 04-10-15 I made years ago.

Wag the Dog – 24-04-22
My graphite pencil drawing Wag the Dog – 26-09-21 was waiting on the shelf to be put into oil. After my last oil Slava Ukraini – 18-04-22 I thought I’d use another surrealist theme and why not?

Slava Ukraini – 18-04-22
The West has recently become familiar with the phrase ‘Slava Ukraini’. Obviously everyone who is a democrat and values freedom above all can support the meaning of this slogan.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream – 05-04-22
This oil painting ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ is born out of some kind of felt urgency. Never before in my life I longed for Spring and Summer in particular than this year.

Ode to Tamara de Lempicka – 31-03-22
This oil is an ode to Tamara de Lempicka and why not? Since I haven’t enjoyed a formal training I had to learn directly from all great masters. Surely I consider her to be one because she developed a distinct style to call her own.

Kali – 23-03-22
Enter Kali The Destroyer. This oil is an elaboration of an earlier graphite pencil drawing ‘Roundism – 26-04-16 (sold)’.

Vesna – 14-03-22
Another Risque painting depicting my muse Julia Filament. Two oil paintings earlier I already did an Ukrainian theme but why not use it once again.

Solarized Roundism – 07-03-22
A new oil painting based on my graphite pencil drawing ‘Solarized Geometry -26-11 21’. After the previous one ‘Rusalka, Free Floating in Russian Waters – 28-02-22’ I was in for something new. In fact, I always am and that mindset prevents me from repeating the same old same.

Rusalka, Free Floating in Ukrainian Waters – 28-02-22
This oil painting I would like to call ‘Rusalka’ in honor of the latest developments in Ukraine. It is an elaboration of my pastel drawing ‘Free Floating Blue Wave Nude – 10-02-21’.

Risque – 22-02-22
This Risque oil looks like a wild Liberace. Or could it be that I was inspired by the song ‘Digital Love’? Often I get these almost synaesthetic feelings whilst listening to music.

Risque – 17-02-22
A new Risque oil painting in the Series by same name. After my last one I wanted to wander in a straight linear landscape again. The motif for this one was based on my colored pencil drawing ‘Risque – 01-22’.

The Meeting -15-02-22
This oil ‘The Meeting’ has a long story. Ages ago, before my cubist and roundistic revolution, I was more into landscapes and surrealism.

Roundism – 10-02-22
This roundism oil painting is quite different from the last roundistic one, called ‘Singularity – 23-12-21’. Whereas the latter was all about the use of shiny colors, the experiment at hand has another color range.

Singularity – 23-12-21
After my initial graphite pencil drawing ‘Roundism (Singularity) – 01-06-17’ I also made a pastel Roundism (Singularity) – 05-06-17. Basically it combines a formalistic point of view on artistic nudity with a deeper meaning or narrative. The latter is about the principles of singularity.
