Model Session – 16-10-20

impressionistic nude pastel drawing

After my sketch of Louise Brooks – 10-10-20 I wanted to do more in my hatched strokes style. Yesterday’s model session offered me the opportunity again to draw with a live model in front of my eyes.

Clairobscur – 06-10-20

impressionisitic nude pastel drawing

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.

Cubist Expressionism – 08-09-20

cubist expressionistic nude oil painting

After careful considering I chose for a rendering with hatched strokes like I am used to in doing pastels and many a drawing, even though this is the first time in oil.

Batenburg – 02-08-20

Graphite pencil drawing of a tranquil riverside scene with dense trees, reflective water, and the castle ruin of Batenburg partially hidden in the background. Executed in impressionist hatched-stroke style.

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.

Clara – 24-04-20

surrealist female form graphite pencil drawing

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.
