About The Artwork

This monochrome painting is an answer on an underpainting I've did for the same scenery with Mr J.Stewart in color. It was a struggle the get the colours right and after that I realize that the underpainting was very strong in it's symplicity. The head comes beautiful out against the dark background. There are always tough decisions to make about the background, a blurry background gives the painting a very realistic appearance but I pick up a big brush for some picturesque look.

Dutch painter. Born 1965 Anloo, the Netherlands I try to evoke a nostalgic atmosphere by my audience, without being aware wistfully. In my work there's a search to detect in sensing the limits of recognizability (Realism) by using moviestills and former documentary material are an important source of inspiration. Atmosphere and space, which are not determined by a variety of realistic details but by simplicity, an often sober color palette and emphatic shadows are defined by different, sometimes experimental designs. Returning image characteristics such as recognition, volume , accent color, strong contrast , nostalgia and humor are important recognizable aspects in my work where emotions play an increasing role . And it should work without losing visibility and realism above all be a beautiful painted work it for the experience of the audience and viewers away. I'am proud that I can now count privat artcollectors from all over the world to my audience. 2018 New! Introducing paintings covered with nylon tulle (removable).
