Oosterbeek – 08-04-20
The second one of Oosterbeek this week and I chose a specific spot in the park where there is a bend in brook running through it.
Veere – 24-03-20
These unusual times cause people to search for new ways to keep their minds busy. Some told me they binge watch or take virtual tours online, others turn to books still waiting for them. As an artist I just turn to what I do best for all these years: drawing and painting.
De Hofvijver – 20-03-20
A unique situation: everybody all around the world at home and as to me: I got nothing to do except for painting and sketching but hey that is what we artists do all the time.
Model session – 23-12-19
My regular model comes to visit me every month and this time I had the plan to put only two small LED light sources around her.
Model session – 26-09-19
Model sketching time again. My mind was occupied with many other projects but live model sketching always has priority. Whereas skecthing often is called the primary process, live model sketching I consider to be primus inter pares.
Una in aliam – 01-09-19
This oil painting is based on my drawing ‘Nude – 17-06-15’. An artist often sees one thing in another. Salvador Dali saw a rhinoceros in Vermeer’s Lacemaker. I saw a horse in a women’s thigh.
Voorburg – 27-08-19
Another drawing of a chiaroscuro forest lane at Park Sonnenburgh in Voorburg, Netherlands, conveniently lingering about around the corner of where I work.
Julia – 02-08-19
Last year I used dancer Julia Gómez Avilés as a model. Next to being a wonderful person for an artist she is ideal because of her flexibility.
Rotterdam – 23-07-19
In the dead of summer means I am in the midst of the outdoor sketching season. Although I did not complete this one on the spot the invention of the basic composition and planal distribution were done at Katendrecht, Rotterdam.
Voorburg – 22-07-19
After teaching today I went to Park Sonnenburgh in Voorburg, Netherlands around the corner.
