About The Artwork

One of the Best This oil painting ‘Neo Deo – 10-08-23’ follows a day later after my drawing ‘Nina – 09-08-23’. Two projects almost finished at the same time. That’s how it goes sometimes. I always have both an oil and a drawing in progress. Not that this oil took a long time to paint. The invention of the idea I already got back in 2014, becoming ‘Roundism – 21-11-14’. It was all about executing it in oil. The waiting list is long. So many drawings and so little time to paint them all. Consequently I pick out the ones I think are the best. The graphite drawing came early in the style and probably was the first one I really was content with. It oozes out art deco completely but also bears my mark. The Right Color Scheme In these kind of projects it’s all about finding the right colour scheme. However, one has to reboot the composition once in a while. Not for this one, at least not too much. I consider it already to be great, even though I haven’t sold it yet, despite the sale of many prints. No, really it was all about a suiting color scheme. When it comes to this, it’s not about rational consideration but all about soul searching really. As an artist I am trained to let it all come to you instead of trying to grasp creativity rationally. For no particular reason the color blue entered my mind. Not the regular kind but an old kind of blue, something out of a 1920s scenery.

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.
