Oil Paintings
Mary Pickford – 13-09-17
This is the painting based on a previous drawing ‘Sans titre – 25-10-16’ depicting Mary Pickford, one of the first female leading ladies in movie history.
The green eyed girl (2017) (sold)
A commission for a classic portrait. The young girl, age 3, has beautiful green eyes (hence the title) and was very animated during the sessions, which is fun to watch but difficult to work with as an artist.
Roundism – 12-02-17 (sold)
This painting is a culmination of all drawing efforts as to the same model pose.
Glass vase (2016)
A quick painting I made the morning before afternoon’s workshop ‘painting glass’.
Roundism – 06-07-16
This oil painting ‘Roundism – 06-07-16’ is a the second one in the same series under the same name. Cubism meeting pointillism!
cubistic spring at voorburg – 05-05-16
This oil painting ‘Cubist Spring in Voorburg – 05-05-16’ I started at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Netherlands. It was King’s Day (Koningsdag).
Gaia – 16-03-16 (sold)
A worked out oil surrealistic painting variation of the last of the ’13 variations on the same theme’ graphite pencil drawing series.
The madonna of The Hague (2015)
This painting is the culmination of the many previous graphite pencil drawings.
The return of Bettie Page – 12-08-15
This is the first roundism oil painting I made of American pin-up and celebrity Bettie Page, after a first drawing I made in the beginning of 2015.
Bettie Page is one person I always admired. Not only she is sexy as hell but also because she deared to flirt with her sexuality in an era throughout the world many were prunes (and still are today).
Hakata Bay – 29-06-15 (sold)
A commissioned piece representing the battle of Bun’ei near Hakata Bay, where Samurai try to stop the Mongols in the year 1274.
Roundism – 02-12-14
The result of so many prestudies in graphite and pastels resulted in the culmination of all efforts into this oil painting. The dimension of colour gives it an extra swirl.
Louise Brooks – 26-10-14 (Sold)
This is the oil version of the prestudy in pastel of Louise Brooks, silent movies actress and flapper girl from the 1920s – 1930s.
Cubistic sitting nude (2014)
vious sketchwork (the birth of new cubism). Rendering cubism in oil gives new ways of depicting the body. This one still is ‘cubism light’ and also can be considered as expres
Marilyn Monroe (2014)
Moviestar Marilyn Monroe in oil and cubism. I chosed a fairly unknown / at least not iconic picture of her.
Abstract Fruits (2013)
A search for capturing a still life in my kind of cubism. For this one I looked closely to Cézanne.
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.
The Ooij polder (2013)
A pointillistic view on The Ooij Polder, an area between the German border and Nijmegen, the place where I grew up.
Henriëtte (2013) (sold)
An oil painting of Henriëtte Sibie, who sits for me quite frequently, most of the times at Studio Brugman.
Cubistic nude 02 (2013)
This oil painting ‘Cubist Nude 02 (2013) is a study after movement. Inspired by Marcel Duchamp’s ‘nu descendant un escalier No 2’.
Cubistic nude 01 (2013) (sold)
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’.
Ilna (2012) (sold)
A commissionary piece for my dear colleague Humphrey Brugman, with some surrealistic elements added.
China Girl (2012) (sold)
This oil painting ‘China Girl (2012) is a tribute to old colonial post cards of exotic nudes. The yellow in this oil serves as the dominant factor.
Cubistic woman (2011)
A mixture between expressionism, pointillism and cubism, done by strong complementary constrasts.
Loving the alien (2011) (sold)
Named after the same song by David Bowie. I made this piece as a protest against all organized religion.
Peggy (2011)
A live model that I painted at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Netherlands. The purporse was to meet realism from an expressionistic starting point.
Mira (2010) (sold)
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.
Cubistic woman (2010)
This oil painting ‘Cubist Woman (2010) probably is the first painting I made in this style. However, it looks more like stained glass than cubism, I think.
Wet dream (2009) (sold)
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.
papaya (2008) (sold)
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.
