"Philip Glass" Fine Art Print

Biography Spurred on by my grandfather who was a painter / sculptor , I have been enthusiastic about making art from an early age . I have painted portraits since childhood , I have always found this the most fascinating subject . The portrait is one of the most popular subjects for artists, so it is important to remain original in this genre. The point is not only to paint a good looking portrait, but also an interesting and captivating work of art. It is said about my work: “Daan van Doorn has a personal handwriting within the palette of portrait painting. His paintings are undeniably contemporary and authentic Van Doorn shows the person behind the face: the depth of the person. His works are characteristic and represent a subtle psychological view of man. Outer and inner beauty mix on the canvas into a penetrating whole. The painted portrait is a valuable addition to the prevailing digital image culture. A good portrait is not only a striking resemblance, but above all a great work of art that continues to fascinate thanks to composition and use of color. Daan van Doorn has developed his own expression within figurative painting. He uses natural pigments and earth tones. Daan van Doorn's distinct style has led to commissions at home and abroad. Collectors of both modern and classical art appreciate Van Doorn. The crowning glory of his work is the painting commissioned by H.M. Queen Beatrix and Prime Minister Balkenende. Daan van Doorn was also selected in 2011 and 2013 for the BP Award of the National Portrait Gallery in London and for the Royal Portrait Society “ Nowadays my work is a mix of images that I come across everywhere in the media, the city, the internet, museums, nature, magazines, etcetera. I combine these images on the computer into a whole which is then printed. I will then guard these prints with structure pastes, acrylic paint, pigments, gels, etc. into a unique work of art. I was born to make art and I do it with passion my experience has shown that selling through the internet and getting to the attention of a worldwide audience works , that's why I like to sell my artworks through Saatchi
