A traditional clairobscur approach of a nude with some complementary colours to beef up the scene.

A study after extreme light from the front with a heavy use of complementary colours.
A study left ‘open’ quite a bit. I like it and going to do more like these one day.
For this study I used black papier and let the core shadows on the body of the model and the cast shadows totally untouched.
A cubist-like study done in a live session at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Netherlands.
A realistic pastel sketch of one of my models ‘Ellen’ at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Netherlands.
Drew a live model at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands.
Henriëtte Sibie at her best, at Studio Brugman (at Voorburg, Netherlands) during a live session.
Drawing of Holland’s most famous model ‘Henriëtte Sibie’, done at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands.
A male nude (done a little bit expressionically) for a change (made at Studio Brugman, at Voorburg Netherlands).
A cubistic prestudy for an oil painting, depicting moviestar and celebrity Romy Schneider.
A prestudy of the oil painting I did later of celebrity Marilyn Monroe.
A prestudy for a painting of Louise Brooks in a cubistic style.
Prestudy for ‘Cubistic Nude 02 (2013)’ in pastel. The oil version has some more movement than this one.
This is the prestudy for ‘Cubistic nude 01 (2013)’ on pastel. I used velours paper and Schmincke pastels so I could fill up planes easily and make a swift progression, keeping up with the ideas that I feared would be lost if I would set it up to slowly.
A place where I came often when I was a young child. It’s a place full of little meres, heather and forests. I like painting and sketching trees.
A pastel drawing based on a 1920’s art deco-style picture.
The original impressionistic pastel drawing of a nude after which I made a copy for a Chinese collector in December 2016.
There is so much colour to be found in shadows. I hardly use unsaturated colours in them because then it looks so brownish and I can’t relate to that. This found its way to a Chinese collector.
classical piece that went to China. They love such classic art over there.
A classic pastel drawing starring Kiki de Montparnasse, Paris’ famous model from the 1920’s.
Second tribute to Man Ray’s surrealistic photos. I wanted to see what the solarized pictures would like if I added some colour to them.
A view on The Hatert Meres, near Nijmegen, Gelderland, Netherlands. The emphasis lies on the reflection of the trees in the water.
A tribute to Man Ray, surrealist photographer and lifetime inspirational source.
It’s not that often that I like to finedetail a drawing but in the case of portraying Nicole Kidman I liked to see how far I could push my own style of hatched strokes with my Derwent pastel pencils (I hardly use).
A classical / realistic approach to realism with a wink to Edgar Degas. It is sold to a Chinese collector.
