'Tears of gold' Inspired by waterlily Victoria Amazonica 120x200cm mixed materials   Sold 

After art school I started out as a painter, with oil on canvas. See the page PAINTINGS

Later on I mainly started  to make DRAWINGS with pencel on paper.

 I  use various materials, like pencil, ink, fineliner and cuttings from glossy magazines.

Other materials or techniques can also be seen in some of the works.

I created my 'braille' with perforated paper to make patterns of flowers.

Recently I explored watercolor, as you can see on the page WATERCOLOR.

As I said on the homepage, nature is my first source of inspiration.

But perhaps you can also recognize the influence of the embroidered tapestries of the 17th century in my drawings.

I like heir harmonious, 'fairytale' quality and their overwhelming feeling of size and beauty.

But ironically, if you look a little closer, these tapestries are not only fairytales, and that goes for my work, too.

It is all in the details. For instance, the 'glossy' sensation of water running in a 'Hunting Scene' can turn into a sense of a crying earth. Or a barbed wire pattern to 'design' a poppy can pose the question of the essence of beauty.
