About The Artwork

Golden Pink – 13-09-20 Golden Pink After my previous colored pencil drawing ‘Golden Brown – 24-08-20’ I wanted to explore the Talens Toned Color Paper futher and see what the motif of a white female model could offer me on dark blue paper. I used the golden pastel and colored pencils because I liked its shine, although it does not look like gold at all when applied. In fact it looks quite tempered and rather matt in stead of shiny but that just adds to the flavor. Slightly Complementary I chose some pinks and purples to complement the yellowish hue of the gold and some orange touches just to set it off against the blue of the paper. The slanted linear structures formed by the buttocks, hip bone, abdominal muscle, breast and lower part of the lower arm are all running parallel. Such repetition enhances rhythym and recognition. Some Mishap To be honest I planned for a graphite pencil version of this one but when I was working in my studio, waiting for my students last Saturday Morning at Studio Brugman, I accidentally rubbed some paint on the drawing still on the table, left behind by a student the day before. Unlucky me but perhaps all things happen for a reason. Tonight I made this one just out of pure serendipity I guess. Colored pencil and pastel drawing on Talens toned colour paper (21 x 29.7 x 0.1 c m) - A4 format) Artist: Corné Akkers

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.
