VIEW IN MY ROOM
This work of a woman's hand holding an apple can be placed in a figurative conceptual tradition. I am mainly inspired by human beings with a ''story'' and try to catch something that could be called the essence of life itself, or the human condition. In this work I used torn black and white photographs of human beings of which traces can be found when looked closely. Further I used mainly oil pain, but also acrylic in the first layer. The work is on canvas and has a hanging device.

Netherlands
I am a Dutch female artist. From childhood on I loved drawing and always felt an urge to create. My first overwhelming experience of art was in front of Picasso's Guernica Museum Reina Sofía in Madrid in my early twenties. I slowly grew in the realisation that I wanted to become a painter because of the urge I kept feeling to express myself via the medium of visual art. In my work I explore the human condition and nature. It's not an explicit message that I want to convey, but a general existential feeling. It's about the delicate line between blossoming, decay and coping and the factors that contribute in that proces. Also I hope to convey some of the mystery that s surrounds all life. My style is somewhere within the range of semi-figurative to (semi-) abstract. I work with all sorts of media, often mixed media. I like to experiment with different kind of techniques. I work mainly with acrylic- and oilpaint, sometimes combined with some form of collage and sometimes I finish it off with a resin topcoat. In my paintings I want to convey the existential feeling of being human and the natural environment that surrounds us with its beauty and threats to it.
