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).
Nude 1 – 19-07-15 – (sold)

An impressionistic view on the buttocks of my favourite model.
Pieternella – 18-07-15 (sold)

Commissioned work. They wanted a portrait in a cubistic style. I used velours paper so I could make planes very easily with my Schmincke pastels.
Carthaginian waiting for her hero’s return – 29-12-14

This piece stands on its own I think. Almost tainted glass-like and not really cubistic anymore, more roundism but different.
Lot & Janik – 07-12-14 (sold)

A commission I took to render two people in an angular cubistic style, preserving realism in an impressionistic way.
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.
A 4th tribute to Bettie Page – 16-09-14

Bettie Page became a sweet taste in my mouth so I rendered her in pastel in reds and greens.
Sans titre – 06-05-14

A cubistic portrait in the ‘sans titre’ series depicting actress and celebrity Romy Schneider.
