About The Artwork
Consecutive Drawing This graphite pencil drawing ‘Delft – 24-03-23’ follows directly after my last one. In my art statement that goes with it I already told something about the purpose of the visit. After visiting the Prinsenhof we went to the Beestenmarkt for a bit. There I ate the most incredible pizza I ever had. Trip advisor: visit Bar Kil next time you check out all the bars and restaurants there. Anyway, after dinner we were walking back to the parking garage near Central Station. Crossing the Oude Delft canal I saw the Oude Jan at the right. This drawings marks that very spot. An Attractive Composition My love for water reflections I often proclaimed and there it was: the old church reflected in a distorted fashion. It must have been some ducks or coots disturbing the water. They created the most wonderful series of water ripples. Even though the sun had disappeared and the trees weren’t in leaf yet, the scenery got my attention. Particularly the round structures of the wavy water contrasting the triangular structure of the canal into the vanishing point. There you have it: a kind of diabolo composition, a double church and roundish water forms.

Netherlands
1969, born in Nijmegen. My work can be seen in many countries all over the world. Corné employs a variety of styles that all have one thing in common: the ever search for the light on phenomena and all the shadows and light planes they block in. His favorites in doing so are oil paint, dry pastel and graphite pencil. He states that it’s not the form or the theme that counts but the way planes of certain tonal quality vary and block in the lights. Colours are relatively unimportant and can take on whatever scheme. It’s the tonal quality that is ever present in his work, creating the illusion of depth and mass on a flat 2d-plane. Corné combines figurative work with the search for abstraction because neither in extremo can provide the desired art statement the public expects from an artist. Besides all that, exaggeration and deviation is the standard and results in a typical use of a strong colour scheme and a hugh tonal bandwith, in order to create art that, when the canvas or paper would be torn into pieces, in essence still would be recognizable.
