Cubist Expressionism – 08-09-20

After careful considering I chose for a rendering with hatched strokes like I am used to in doing pastels and many a drawing, even though this is the first time in oil.

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.

Clara – 24-04-20

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Clara – 25-04-20’ is a bit of solarisation. Beautiful Instagram model Clara was the inspirational source.

Veere – 24-03-20

These unusual times cause people to search for new ways to keep their minds busy. Some told me they binge watch or take virtual tours online, others turn to books still waiting for them. As an artist I just turn to what I do best for all these years: drawing and painting.

De Hofvijver – 20-03-20

This graphite pencil drawing ‘De Hofvijver (The Court’s Pond) -20-03-20 (Sold)’ is a bit of gloomy impressionism. A blurry homage to Seurat.

The Implicite Order – 11-03-20

A continuation of the previous painting called ‘The Implicite Order – 20-02-20’, commissioned by an American collector.

Model session – 26-09-19

Model sketching time again. My mind was occupied with many other projects but live model sketching always has priority. Whereas skecthing often is called the primary process, live model sketching I consider to be primus inter pares.

Una in aliam – 01-09-19

This oil painting is based on my drawing ‘Nude – 17-06-15’. An artist often sees one thing in another. Salvador Dali saw a rhinoceros in Vermeer’s Lacemaker. I saw a horse in a women’s thigh.

Voorburg – 27-08-19

Another drawing of a chiaroscuro forest lane at Park Sonnenburgh in Voorburg, Netherlands, conveniently lingering about around the corner of where I work.
