Village at the water Painting

Harrie Sijbers’ paintings offer a real breath of fresh country air. Born in 1953 in Holland, the artist studied at the Design Academy in Eindhoven. His expressive artwork transports us into abstracted landscapes and abstracted floral compositions. The artist’s sensitivity to nature is clear to see. The blurred compositions, exploring innovative perspectives, give the artworks an abstract feel. The raw, spontaneous movement perfectly conveys the artist’s ecstasy. Often made using a scraper, his artwork is filled with oil paints and has a unique texture, thanks to the high-quality nature of his materials.This Dutch painter loves moving freely from floral arrangements that are still recognizable as figurative, to others in which the shapes of the flowers have lost their real features, acquiring instead those of a throbbing naturalistic abstraction with intense matter effects. His expressionist paintings show the inner force of colour and of shapes that express feelings, impulses and emotions. Each of his works is resolute in its style and conveys a pictorial liveliness resulting in a unique and innovative perspective - such a rich perspective that it elevates these works to the level of pure aesthetic lyricism.
