Model study (2011)

Impressionistic nude charcoal sketch

Peggy (2011)

A live model that I painted at Studio Brugman, Voorburg, Netherlands. The purporse was to meet realism from an expressionistic starting point.

Mira (2010) (sold)

Surrealistic oil painting

A commissionary piece for the parents of a little girl. I asked for some liberty because the girl wanted to have flowers in the painting, so to avoid being corny I put some surrealistic elements in it.

Cubistic woman (2010)

Cubistic nude oil painting

This oil painting ‘Cubist Woman (2010) probably is the first painting I made in this style. However, it looks more like stained glass than cubism, I think.

Reims (2009)

Surrealistic portrait oil painting

A surrealistic piece of a former girlfriend from Reims.

papaya (2008) (sold)

Surrealist still life oil painting

A still life in which I tried to combine cubism and realism in such respect that the cubistic papaya would be looking realistic as well.

Elysian fields (2008)

Surrealistic landscape oil painting

A big surrealistic oil painting. Surrealism – with Salvador Dali as exceptional example – always has drawn my attention.
