Gemeentemuseum 01 (2014)

The first of the ‘Gemeentemuseum series’. This one still is in the recondo mode, investigating what I could do with the subject. I had a vague idea of cubism because there’s a lot in it and the building itself is a complex of cubes. A kind of ode to Mondriaan or would that be too corny?

Cubistic Nude 07 (2014) (sold)

With this pastel I was unfolding my way of cubism with different means than graphite only. This one is in Scotland in the hands of a private collector.

Abstract Fruits (2013)

A search for capturing a still life in my kind of cubism. For this one I looked closely to Cézanne.

Cubistic nude (06) (2013)

Just like ‘Cubistic nude – 04 (2013)’ this one is featured in a daily dutch television soap although scaled down too small. I liked doing some strong stuff through a complementary mix purple / yellow.

Cubistic nude 05 (2013) (sold)

One I did as a commission. It’s a combination of straight planes and round forms putting the stress on the model’s movements.

Cubistic nude (04) (2013)

This one is featured in a daily dutch television soap although scaled down too small.

Cubistic nude (03) (2013)

A very mild cubistic approach to this one. I wanted to see if a realistic view could be combined with some abstraction.

Cubistic sitting nude (2013)

A cubist-like study done in a live session at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Netherlands.

Romy Schneider (2013)

A cubistic prestudy for an oil painting, depicting moviestar and celebrity Romy Schneider.

Marilyn Monroe (prestudy) (2013) (sold)

A prestudy of the oil painting I did later of celebrity Marilyn Monroe.
