Autumn tree at Laren (2013) (sold)
Museum at Laren, Noord-Holland, Netherlands, I walk by this tree. In spring and in fall it shows magnificent colours. It is not always that I paint impressionistically but this tree was worth doing it.
Museum at Laren, Noord-Holland, Netherlands, I walk by this tree. In spring and in fall it shows magnificent colours. It is not always that I paint impressionistically but this tree was worth doing it.
A pointillistic view on The Ooij Polder, an area between the German border and Nijmegen, the place where I grew up.
An oil painting of Henriëtte Sibie, who sits for me quite frequently, most of the times at Studio Brugman.
A study after movement and cubism. I was inspired by Marcel Duchamp’s ‘nu descendant l’escalier’. I like women swinging their hips.
One of the early paintings in a distint different cubist style I was searching for. It was my first sales on Saatchiart and my type of cubism has developed into a variety I call ’roundism’.
A commissionary piece for my dear colleague Humphrey Brugman, with some surrealistic elements added.
I love those old colonial post cards of exotic nudes. This one is based on such a card but of course with the addition of extreme colours.
A mixture between expressionism, pointillism and cubism, done by strong complementary constrasts.
Named after the same song by David Bowie. I made this piece as a protest against all organized religion.
A live model that I painted at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Netherlands. The purporse was to meet realism from an expressionistic starting point.
A commissionary piece for the parents of a little girl. I asked for some liberty because the girl wanted to have flowers in the painting, so to avoid being corny I put some surrealistic elements in it.
Probably the first cubistic painting I made. This one rather looks like stained glass than being cubistic, I think.
In 2009 my bathroom was finished and I was taking a bath. Due to lavender oil I dreamt away and saw a woman floating towards me.
A still life in which I tried to combine cubism and realism in such respect that the cubistic papaya would be looking realistic as well.
A big surrealistic oil painting. Surrealism – with Salvador Dali as exceptional example – always has drawn my attention.
A commissionary piece for someone who loves the blues. Robert Johnson with his guitar walking from the departing train.
A painting I made for my exhibition in 2008 at museum ‘Marishuis’ at Heumen, Gelderland, Nederland.
A surreastic oil painting with an ashtray and flowers as cigars. I liked painting the texture of fire so I had to come up with a dark negative space to sett off the light sufficiently.
The original oil painting on which I based a much larger version. I was fantasizing what would have happened in the days before the assassination of president John F. Kennedy at the very spot (Dealy Plaza).
A commissionary piece for someone you wanted a bigger version of the one I already painted.
One of the many oil paintings but few still lifes I made throughout the years.
Not a real surrealistic painting but almost ‘alternative realism’. A woman reading the newspapers. One used condom on the floor, half a bottle of wine with two empty glasses. One cup of coffee on bed.
In my ever struggle with still lifes I wanted to do a styled flower like a Strelizia and put it in a granate shell my grandfather retrieved from a German Flak position at Nijmegen during W.W. II and light it with a maclite mini torch from within the shell.
A surrealistic piece on Al Zarqawi and a domestic scene on the face of the moon.
Twice it came back to me because of the partner of the purchaser didn’t agree with the vibrator. The third time was a charm.
A study after sunlight hitting a still life with extreme backlight, with hints of impressionism.
