This is one of the pastel drawings I made of the Gemeentemuseum at The Hague, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands, construed by the famous dutch architect Berlage.

Gemeentemuseum 03 – 2014

The Gemeentemuseum at The Hague, Netherlands is one of the leading museums in the world with the biggest Mondriaan collection (among others ‘Victory Boogie Woogie’, admired by Barrack Obama at the spot) I felt doing a series turning Berlage’s architecture into cubism. This is one of them.

Gemeentemuseum 02 – 2014

The second one of the series, turning to abstraction already. Still a lot of atmospheric depth and perspectives.

Gemeentemuseum 01 – 2014

cubistic museum pastel drawing

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?

Abstract Fruits – 2013

cubistic still life oil painting

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

Cubistic Nude 05 – 2013 (Sold)

Cubistic nude pastel drawing

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

Cubist Nude 02 – 2013

An abstract cubist depiction of a nude figure seen from the back, composed of interlocking geometric facets in red, pink, blue, and green, painted in oil on linen.

This oil painting ‘Cubist Nude 02 (2013) is a study after movement. Inspired by Marcel Duchamp’s ‘nu descendant un escalier No 2’.

Cubist Nude 01 – 2013 (sold)

Cubistic nude oil painting

One of the early paintings in a distint different cubist style I was searching for. It was my first sales on Saatchiart and my type of cubism has developed into a variety I call ’roundism’.

Cubist Woman – 2011

A mixture between expressionism, pointillism and cubism, done by strong complementary constrasts.
