Yeast – 2019-09-18 (Sold)
My model came with this pose Modonna used for one of her albums. Originally it was intented to do square sized pastels because I happen to have 4 spare square frames but today I saw a greater scheme I had to work out first.
Roundism – 2019-09-10
I saw this great vintage picture of a nude on the roof top of an open van and I liked the styled planes it already showed: the squares in the open door, some round ones in the model and some great diagonals. The woman has great nipples and I guess I will not post this one on some of the social media.
Roundism – 2019-09-03
I found a great vintage photo online that inspired me to put this female body on paper using triangles and round shapes, strengthening the pyramid like pose.
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
Last weekend I visited De Lakenhal at Leiden, Netherlands to see the exhibition ‘Rembrandt and the Golden Age’.
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.
4th August 2019
Started a new painting tody, based on my previous drawing ‘Nude – 17-06-15’. After building my new website in July I longed for dragging myself from the screen to the wood panel and do this one, also because I feel an obligation to finally work out all of my ideas in graphite pencil onto wood panel and/or linen.
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!
