Roundism – 10-03-20
The Corona virus roams around Planet Earth and holds everyone tightly in its grip. Everybody stays put and I almost feel suffering from a locked-in syndrom, with no particular place to go and the only expression I can make is through the tip of my pencil and teaching the students that will come.
The golden ratio – 29-02-20
This drawing came into existence very intuitively. I concluded some major projects and I always have a drawing in progress, drawing waiting for my students in Voorburg.

A second prestudy for a commissioned piece, combining
symbolic shapes with my personal roundism style.
Roundism – 11-01-20
Of late I was busy painting ‘The Restoration of Bettie Page’ and since a month or so drawings do not sprout from my pencil that often. But sometimes you have to let the painting be for a day and return to drawing process.

My regular model comes to visit me every month and this time I had the plan to put only two small LED light sources around her.

It so happened that I was instructing a knight on horseback to prance in front of me so I could do a live painting on him, then all of a sudden this beautiful maiden was ruling us both.
Roundism – 19-10-19
It was time to return to my roundism style and the position of this one inspired to me show the flow her hips suggest.
In hoc signo – 14-10-19 (sold)
I am always looking for inconventional vantage points as to looking at a model and this position seemed both sensual and integrous as implicitely explicit.
Catwoman – 24-09-19
No doubt about it: cats are portals to the other side and through the vortices of their curly tails we are directly drawn into it.
Yeast – 18-09-19 (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.
