Woman in a Red Kimono – 02-07-21

This drawing of a woman in a red kimono is based on a session with my regular model. It so happened that I teamed up with a student of mine who rents a lovely studio in The Hague.

Maassluis – 08-06-21

This graphite pencil drawing of Maassluis is an inbetween exercise. Lately I am fantasizing about combining ‘realism’ or whatever realism might mean to an artist and my personal roundism style.

De Smorenhoek – 17-12-20

Some time ago I visited De Smorenhoek, a small but long meadow surrounded by wood embarkements. From Beek-Ubbergen it runs upwards to Berg en Dal.

Puiflijk – 27-11-20

And it so happens my niece Lilian turned out to be a great photographer. Lo and behold, artistry runs deep in the veins of our family and I asked her to use a beautiful photo she took of a treeline in Puiflijk, near to where she lives.

Clairobscur – 06-10-20

In 2013 I started this clairobscur lit nude and tucked it in one of pastel maps, only to forget about it for years and years.

Bedside Moonlighting – 31-08-20

My model and I were looking for intesting poses and on the bedside there it was: a beautiful one with some interesting lighting. Sometimes extreme light like in this particular case can offer a new insight in compositionary possibilities.

Batenburg – 02-08-20

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Batenburg – 02-08-20’ depicts a place not far away from were I was born. A bit of beauty in impressionist hatched strokes.

Friends – 29-07-20 (sold)

Not often is it that I depict animals with children but this one is a beautiful exception

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Estate ‘Reigersbergen’ – 16-05-20’ is a bit of impression, executed in my hatched strokes style.

Voorlinden – 03-05-20

Estate ‘Voorlinden’ at Wassenaar, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands has become my favourite park. There are these beautiful pines standing tall.
