In The Netherlands there isn’t a single artist who hasn’t sketched Henriëtte Sibie during a live session.
Nude – 21-12-16 (sold)

Did this one for a Chinese collector who wanted to have a copy the same pastel from 2012 which he acquired as well. The Chinese are into realistic western art nowadays.
Binkie – 21-10-16 (sold)

A commission to do a pet was a big challenge for me. I have never done a dog before.
Nude – live drawing session 2 – 26-03-16

A mixture of impressionism, realism and cubism.
Nude – live drawing session 1 – 26-03-16

More of a styling really but the main theme in my ever search for a new kind of cubism these last years
Nude – 07-03-16

A classic study of the female corpse in pastel. I put the stress on the high lights.
Nude – 04-03-16 (sold)

A pastel that was lingering about in my studio for years until I completed it. I went for a strong purple / yellow contrast. It’s now with a private collector in China.
Pearls – 01-03-16 (sold)

This was commissioned work and the purpose was to capture sensuality and through cubist forms get the round female shapes.
Nude study – session of 20-02-16

Just practising my view and hands.
Nude – 19-01-16

I liked the sausage-form quality of the model reclining on the floor and immediately saw the roundism-styled shapes in it.
