Model session 2 @ Rotterdam – 19-11-17
Short positions at live model sketching took me back to reinvent my way rendering human bodies and together with my new found Pastelmat by Clairefontaine I was able to experiment with new ways.
Nude – 01-10-17
A rather loose cubistic sketch done with colour pencils. For the 4th time in a row I used the same (indian) model. Her skin allows me to use a lot of yellow which I counterbalanced with edgy purple planes.
Roundism – 26-09-17
I am on track doing some new nudes with my favorite model of Indian descendance.
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.
Mildred 2 – session 22-07-17
Drawn in one of the monthly live drawing sessions at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Netherlands.
Roundism (singularity) – 05-06-17
A pastel version of the graphite pencil drawing ‘Roundism (singularity) 01-06-17’.
Roundism – 29-05-17 (sold)
A pastel version of the graphite pencil drawing ‘Roundism – 26-05-17’. I used the primary colours red, yellow and blue to honor ‘De Stijl’, a dutch art movement that celebrates its 100 birthday this year.
Roundism – 26-05-17 (sold)
During my lessons as a teacher I stell my students there is no end to perfection and one never can tell when a painting or drawing is finished.
Hélène – session 2 @ Studio Brugman – 20-05-17
Drawn in one of the monthly live drawing sessions at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Netherlands.
The widow of Aleppo – 18-05-17 (sold)
I always wanted to do a piece after Rembrandt’s Jeremiah lamenting Jerusalem’s destruction and I could not find a more appropiate subject than the horrific destruction of Aleppo.
