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.
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.
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).
l’Odalisque (2012)
Many have painted a l’Odalisque but this one is based on a photo by Eugène Durieu (1850’s). I thought even Delacroix used this picture as a reference photo.
Little Boy – 2012
An instructional piece for a woman from the USA who wanted to draw her son.
Cubistic woman (2011)
A mixture between expressionism, pointillism and cubism, done by strong complementary constrasts.
Cubistic woman (2010)
This oil painting ‘Cubist Woman (2010) probably is the first painting I made in this style. However, it looks more like stained glass than cubism, I think.
Reims (2009)
A surrealistic piece of a former girlfriend from Reims.
papaya (2008) (sold)
A still life in which I tried to combine cubism and realism in such respect that the cubistic papaya would be looking realistic as well.
