Cubistic nude (02) (prestudy) (2013)

Prestudy for ‘Cubistic Nude 02 (2013)’ in pastel. The oil version has some more movement than this one.
Cubistic nude (01) (prestudy) (2013)

This is the prestudy for ‘Cubistic nude 01 (2013)’ on pastel. I used velours paper and Schmincke pastels so I could fill up planes easily and make a swift progression, keeping up with the ideas that I feared would be lost if I would set it up to slowly.
Hatertse Vennen (Hatert Meres) 01 (2012)

A place where I came often when I was a young child. It’s a place full of little meres, heather and forests. I like painting and sketching trees.
Ilna (2012) (sold)

A commissionary piece for my dear colleague Humphrey Brugman, with some surrealistic elements added.
Homage to Man Ray 2 (2012)

Second tribute to Man Ray’s surrealistic photos. I wanted to see what the solarized pictures would like if I added some colour to them.
Hatert Meres (Hatertse Vennen) 02 (2012)

A view on The Hatert Meres, near Nijmegen, Gelderland, Netherlands. The emphasis lies on the reflection of the trees in the water.
Hommage to Man Ray 1 (2012)

A tribute to Man Ray, surrealist photographer and lifetime inspirational source.
Portrait of a lady (2012) (sold)

It’s not that often that I like to finedetail a drawing but in the case of portraying Nicole Kidman I liked to see how far I could push my own style of hatched strokes with my Derwent pastel pencils (I hardly use).
Bathing nude (2012) (sold)

A classical / realistic approach to realism with a wink to Edgar Degas. It is sold to a Chinese collector.
Hommage to Man Ray (Lee Miller) (2012)

After a Man Ray picture of Lee Miller. I believe before he went on the solarization of photos.
