Bedside Moonlighting – 31-08-20

My model and I were looking for intesting poses and on the bedside there it was: a beautiful one with some interesting lighting. Sometimes extreme light like in this particular case can offer a new insight in compositionary possibilities.

The Venus of The Hague – 23-07-20

Being a deep sea fish a coelacanth hardly ever come face to face with a white shark way up high but sometimes it does. If so, what would you expect to happen.

The Venus of The Hague – 09-07-20

Animals kept crawling in so it was inevitable to incorporate them into these series. The first one I saw was a lioness in her thight and second the hares in her buttocs.

The Venus of The Hague – 24-06-20

Next move on my Venus trail. I decided to do another surrealist one or is it? I put in some of my earlier themes like ‘singarity’, ‘the golden ratio’ and combine them with ‘the collapse of the wave function’.

Roundism – 16-03-20

Since Corona has brought a new reality and forces so many countries to lock down, there is nothing much left for me but to teach some of the students that have the guts to show up and in the evenings I spend my time drawing and painting. But hey, the life of an artist always looks that way.

The Implicite Order – 11-03-20

A continuation of the previous painting called ‘The Implicite Order – 20-02-20’, commissioned by an American collector.

Roundism – 10-03-20

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Roundism – 10-03-20’ takes me back tot he 1920s. It matches my personal Roundism style very well.

The golden ratio – 29-02-20

Roundism – 30-01-20

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.
