My Rembrandt ‘landscape with the stone bridge’.
Had a blast! So educational and it appeared to be a relatively easy landscape to copy, but the Master had some nasty tricks for me to reproduce!
Let me know what you think! And thanks for following.

Oil on panel, 50x40cm

Rembrandt study I made recently in dip pen. His graphic work is incredible, because he was a true master of light and dark (sounds heroic) and the line. The latter you can well see in the scarf and curly hairs.

By copying the portrait I was forced to use the full extend of what you can do in dip pen, which is quite similar to some of the effect you can achieve in dry needle. Dry needle is scratching in a copper plate, put ink in the scratches and press the plate onto paper real hard. In February we will move and I will have the possibility to have an etch press: to be continued!

My Bryullov study called 'Turkish Girl' is acquired by a happy client. I am grateful and it looks awesome in the frame I think. What do you think of the work? Let me know!

Two landscape studies made with dip pen on Hahnemüller paper. I really love dip pen as a medium because it is so practical and simple, but you can put a lot of feeling in and make awesome details.

For a landscape commission I made this drawing. It is one step in multiple iterations. Bit by bit we work towards a landscape that should remain interesting for decades (at least 😎).

Many people ask me how much time I spent on a painting. Well, that is hard to say. I can think / dream about it a lot during the day. That's often when I make important decisions on the approach. Also there's the drawing part, so far I already made twelve of them for this commission. Then you have the time where you meet and present and discuss the intermediate results. And last of course there's the putting brush strokes on linnen part. This part is where some people want to know the hourly rate from, but I can tell you this: behind every hour of actual painting there's one to two hours of preparation! 😁

Anyway, it is really nice to have the opportunity to go through this process with such consideration. Building the work from the bottom up can only result in a very strong painting. I cannot wait to start with the first layer.

The electricity in our neigbourhood is gone, so here I find myself making a dip pen drawing by daylight and candlelight, just like my predecessors...

#wip and look inside the atelier. It's a selfportrait I am working on. Couldn't resist myself to post it already, but since I usually work on half a dozen paintings at the same time, I manage not to finish any of them! Haha.

In this painting: a light side of the head with short directional brush marks with much contrasting colors, using thick hog hair brushes, and a mysterious shadow side with soft sable hair brushes. It's subtle glazing and lively impasto combined.

What do you think of the work? Let me know!!! Thanks for following, means a lot and spread the word.

A Rembrandt study I made for my mother-in-law. Happy birthday!

I reaaaally enjoy making these studies. It is super interesting and I am learning how to draw clean and with frivolity. What do you think? Does it come close to Rembrandt's works?

Dip pen drawing of my mom's favorite cow breed. Happy birthday to the sweetest mother in the world.

My Karel Appel based work found its way to a group exhibition. on show in Gallerie Wind, Prins Hendrikkade 124 in #rotterdam until the 9th of September. Open on Thursdays to Sundays.

It was interesting to do some personal research on the philosophy of cobra and the methods and visual language of Karel Appel. And quite thrilling to make and show this. What do you think?

Oils on linnen, 60x80cm. The frame is massive oak wood made by @keesdekkers and myself.

There it is. After an intensive week of putting brushstrokes on a canvas I managed to go through all the stages of oil painting used within the Russian Imperial Academy. Thanks to Igor Naskalov for a very decent training.

And numero due. Our camping neighbours pointed out that 100m further there was a field full of sunflowers so I channelled my inner Van Gogh and went there.

A bit more realistisc this time. The sunflowers are impasto work applied with twigs and different types of grass because the broad brushes just didn't do the trick.

Tuscany Hills, a tiny landscape. My first plein air here, searching a bit for a method, ending up in short brush strokes that became a bit messy in my opinion. Had to put it on hold for the dissappearing shade, so I might continue working on it later, altough we left this iddylic Italian wine region already. But a mixture of visual memory and imagination can can do amazing things in my opinion.

What do you think? Do you feel la dolce vita, and the burning sun?

Oils on panel, 30 x 20 cm.

Tuscany tree. Somehow I am always fascinated by where the tree branches the first time. There you see influence of the weather over time with the branches going everywhere depending on where they can grow the tallest while remaining strong. The result is this twirling bark that I find just too amazing. Nature is so cool, we got to respect it bruf.

Light, directional short impasto strokes, contrasting colors et voila.

Btw, it is for sale for €150 tax included, excl. shipping in Europe. Comes with certificate of authenticity signed by the maestro. A nice chance to obtain a work from my Tuscany period 😜

20x30cm, oils on panel.

Nice to see this tiny self portrait in a frame :) I appreciate wooden frames like this

Start of a new portrait: Selfportrait painting, a classic theme in the (wondrous) world of portrait painters. 😁

It has some very thick directional brush strokes á la Freud, something I was working on the first time I made 'the Philosopher'. But I now combine it with glacing, which are subtle transparant layers. At that time I didn't know glacing existed basically, so it was a very clumsy way of working, plowing my brushes through layers of paint that became thicker and dryer each session.

Will share some close up photos once the work is finished.

The selfportrait I was talking about from 3 years ago. I recently gave it a blue background and a black wooden gilded frame I made myself. What do you think? 🙂
