Under An Angle

Under An Angle; Most of my artworks are painted under an angle. Without that, it would be impossible to create those flowing, circular shapes, our bodies simply don’t allow it. They often border an impossibility and play on the edge of human reason.  I love changing perspective; this painting defies gravity in every possible way. It’s a place to immerse yourself in, a place where there is always something new to discover.

This artwork began as round as round can be, like a rising full moon. Its circular form is expansive and wide. It seems almost perfectly round, but it isn’t. It is shaped at an angle, which changes its perspective and sets its form in motion, suggesting an ongoing process. The meeting point is soft and subtle like a gentle embrace.

Almost Liberated From Gravity

Almost Liberated From Gravity; Belonging to the serie mesmerizing the colour effect is really optical. What happens to a painting when you can walk around it? Discover it from all sides? It is almost liberated from gravity? How close can we get to being liberated, that is what this painting is about. The glass is almost liberated from the standard as well.

Poppy red

For several years I was trying to catch the true poppy colour, what allmost seemed impossible. Just like the flower the glass is translucent. So you can get really close to the true poppy colour. Which was an experiment. They always comfort me during spring time (their powerfull, strong colour) when you find poppy everywhere around.

The noctilucent clouds

A reflection of the noctilucent clouds, rarely visable around june in the Dutch air/clouds. Standing really low at the horizon, just like this round shape. The wide scale of colours of the noctilucent clouds are showcased in this painting and can be discovered around the artwork. This painting is painted on anti-reflective glass and can be shown in different ways. When it’s showcased as an object, you can take a closer look at the sides of the glass, where you can find it’s colour reflecting. It works continually with the light. It’s an artwork to experience. You can also play with a white background and frame it. The effect of the painting is completely different, but no less interesting becoming softer at its corners.

Eternal sunshine

One of the first paintings on satin glass. It is based on the spring sun, stronger then the wintersun, still wide and standing low at the horizon. It is touching the standard but still liberated for a bit. It’s round shape suggests an ongoing process.

When it enters your home, you will have eternal sunshine. Because even in the winter days, the painting still gives you some strong, bright and soft colours. The colours start playing around with the day/sunlight throughout the year. A continuous play with the changing light around.

Integrated in the standard you will find Lightning. Which makes the experience of eternal sunshine complete. Also at night.
