Louise Brooks – 10-10-20

Just a quick sketch of Louise Brooks, moviestar and celebrity of the 1920s and 1930s.

Clairobscur – 06-10-20

In 2013 I started this clairobscur lit nude and tucked it in one of pastel maps, only to forget about it for years and years.

Batenburg – 02-08-20

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Batenburg – 02-08-20’ depicts a place not far away from were I was born. A bit of beauty in impressionist hatched strokes.

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’.

Voorlinden – 03-05-20

Estate ‘Voorlinden’ at Wassenaar, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands has become my favourite park. There are these beautiful pines standing tall.

Clara – 24-04-20

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Clara – 25-04-20’ is a bit of solarisation. Beautiful Instagram model Clara was the inspirational source.

Veere – 24-03-20

These unusual times cause people to search for new ways to keep their minds busy. Some told me they binge watch or take virtual tours online, others turn to books still waiting for them. As an artist I just turn to what I do best for all these years: drawing and painting.

De Hofvijver – 20-03-20

This graphite pencil drawing ‘De Hofvijver (The Court’s Pond) -20-03-20 (Sold)’ is a bit of gloomy impressionism. A blurry homage to Seurat.
