Una in Aliam – 2019-09-01

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 – 2019-08-27

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

De Lakenhal – 2019-08-16

Sans Titre – 2019-08-08 (Sold)

This drawing ‘Sans Titre – 08-08-19’ depicts Lily Elsie, Edwardian actress and singer. For obvious reasons liked the hair volume, its curls and plains.

Julia – 2019-08-02

Last year I used dancer Julia Gómez Avilés as a model. Next to being a wonderful person for an artist she is ideal because of her flexibility.

Rotterdam – 2019-07-23

In the dead of summer means I am in the midst of the outdoor sketching season. Although I did not complete this one on the spot the invention of the basic composition and planal distribution were done at Katendrecht, Rotterdam.

Voorburg – 2019-07-22

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Voorburg – 23-07-19’ is all about an impressionist view on sunlight between trees. How leafy can it be!

Beek – 2019-07-21

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Beek – 21-07-19’ I made during a trip to Beek-Ubbergen with my parents. The focus lies on the tree in the front.

Voorburg – 2019-07-16

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Voorburg – 16-07-19’ is about a place I know very well. It’s Park ‘t Loo in Voorburg and this is my cubist interpretation of it.

Kethel – 2019-07-13 (Sold)

When I returned to my car from my little trip to Kethel, Schiedam, Netherlands, I saw this beautiful tree in bloom. Sometimes you look for grand things and the little all of a sudden pop into your eyes when least expected.
