The Ooij polder – 27-06-16 (sold)

surrealistic landscape graphite pencil drawing

A little pond situated in the Ooij Polder, Gelderland, Netherlands, near Nijmegen, caused me a lot of trouble. I saw human figures in the treeline and the water reflections but I had to come up with some subtlety so I wouldn’t attrack all the attention to the figures as well to the trees as a given realistic fact.

Rotterdam – Coolhaven – 02-03-16 (sold)

Impressionistic landscape graphite pencil drawing

A rather impressionistic view on Coolhaven (part of the harbour of Rotterdam). I made this drawing inspired by a trip to Rotterdam when I passed by the Coolhaven and I lost a contact that day so I saw it quite blurry.

Marlot – 18-02-16

surrealistic landscape graphite pencil drawing

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Marlot – 18-02-16’ is a surrealist one. I started out doing this one impressionistically then I saw the potential for something else

Hakata Bay – 29-06-15 (sold)

Surrealistic seascape oil painting

A commissioned piece representing the battle of Bun’ei near Hakata Bay, where Samurai try to stop the Mongols in the year 1274.

The Hague forest – 23-06-15

Graphite pencil drawing of a tranquil forest scene with tall trees reflected in still water, rendered with detailed shading.

This graphite pencil drawing ‘The Hague Forest (Haagse Bos) – 23-06-15’ actually depicts a place quite near. It became a bit of impressionism.

Nude – 06-04-15

impressionist nude graphite pencil drawing

After the last graphite pencil drawing I realized something was missing, not the nude of course. That style was realistic or impressionistic, something I am skilled at for a long time now.
