About The Artwork
One of my exercises is to paint the works of old master's. It is a very good way to learn more about how they painted their way, explore the technique with which they painted and also the movement that they were thinking of. Bouguerau reproductions are very popular. Pierre Auguste Cot was a student of Bouguerau and although his works looks very similar, it is less mythical. What I love about this painting is how they seem drunken in love, the gaze of the female is full of engagement and admitration. The sinusoidal movement throughout the painting reflects the expectation of how the swing works. In some works the subjects may seem to engage with the viewer, but here, the subjects aren't distracted by the viewer one single bit.

Netherlands
I'm an artist from Rotterdam. In daytime I work with technology, after working hours and in weekends I spend my time painting. I mostly like realist paintings, particularly the ones that have a subconscious element to it. I like to look at paintings for a long time, discovering specific cues in expressions, movements, poses and from there colors, color harmonies. In my own works I also like to take the time to discover the subjects, what works and where to exaggerate a bit and where to diminish.
