Gemeentemuseum 01 (2014)
The first of the ‘Gemeentemuseum series’. This one still is in the recondo mode, investigating what I could do with the subject. I had a vague idea of cubism because there’s a lot in it and the building itself is a complex of cubes. A kind of ode to Mondriaan or would that be too corny?
Hatert Meres (Hatertse Vennen) 06 (2014) (sold)
Scenery at the Hatert Meres between Nijmegen and Overasselt, Gelderland, Nederland. It is purchased by a Chinese collector through Artplu, China.
Utah (2014)
This pastel drawing ‘Utah (2014)’ depicts a particular canyon in Utah, not Bryce Canyon by the way. Executed in my impressionist hatched strokes style.
Nude 15 (2014) (sold)
A pastel drawing of a nude in red with only a tiny touch of yellow.
The Hague Golf & Country club (2014)
This pastel drawing ‘The Hague Golf & Country Club (2014)’ is my attempt to equal skills with those of Pissarro. The grandmaster in depicting foliage.one big light show at the end of autumn.
Splash (2013)
An experiment in pastel to get flow without blending out with my fingers (in order to avoid ‘muddy segments’ in my pastels).
Nude couple (2013) (sold)
A quick sketch of an old picture I once found that I quickly sold to one of my students.
Estate ‘Voorlinden’ – 21-08-13
A sketch of estate ‘Voorlinden’ (at Wassenaar, Netherlands), bought by Mr. Caldenborgh who built a fine museum of modern art next to the old manor some time later.
Clingendael – 14-08-13
A quick impressionistic sketch from my tours through The Hague and its parks. This one is Clingendael.
Meyendel Mountain (Meyendelse berg) – 11-08-13
A vista point of view to draw from. Challenging enough because of lack of tonality. I had the bramberry-like bushes in front to get the depth going.
