Portrait Month 3: Flip … and a palette

May 22, 2010

This is the last image of the Portrait Month. Can’t wait for next year ;) I thought maybe it is interesting to show my palette for this one – so here is a photo of the state after half an hour. As you can see, I mix all major colors before I start painting. I … Continue reading Portrait Month 3: Flip … and a palette →

Portrait Month: Mieneke

May 14, 2010

The actual Portrait month is over – I still have this and one more image to show. With this painting everything went wrong: The model didn’t show up, so we started late and a fellow artist had to pose (thanks Mieneke :)). Then the background was a cloth over a door – so it changed … Continue reading Portrait Month: Mieneke →

Queensday Portraits

May 12, 2010

On this Queensday I was painting portraits in Amsterdam’s Vondelpark again. This time with even more artists – Henrik joined, Svetlana reserved the spot and took pictures and Ingeborg and Renske were drawing also. Which is nice – it attracts people to watch and makes them want a portrait too. Even though we were all … Continue reading Queensday Portraits →

Rotating Beer Coaster Art

May 10, 2010

Last week me and some friends were drawing on beer mats again – I think over the years we filled quite some of them :) Great fun. Usually I leave them in the bars, but this one is special. Spot how many creatures you can find on this one. Careful though: if you look to … Continue reading Rotating Beer Coaster Art →

Portrait Month – Norma

April 24, 2010

Painting a good friend is really a challenge. I think it is the pressure to get really the person one knows – but damn, its fun to try :) So thanks a lot to Norma for posing last week in the ongoing Portrait Month in the Gallery de Stoker. And the good news: more friend-portraits … Continue reading Portrait Month – Norma →

Final painting: Lake 2

April 19, 2010

I’ve posted a wip earlier. Here is the final one of Lake. The foreground works better now with the extended sheet. I also had a more detailed face at some point – but overpainted it to a simpler version.

Yola, final version

April 13, 2010

This is the final version of a work in progress I posted before. Visitors of the exhibition have seen the image already. Although I must admit, since I was in a hurry I accidentally hung it up the wrong way :D Both versions work – but I do like this angle the most.

Digital spicing

March 27, 2010

Has been a while that I posted a digital artwork. This one I tweaked recently – it was originally thought for a poster of a game where you can control water. The character design is by Ramon Contini, which you can find (along other cool stuff) on his website.

Work in Progress Lake2

March 24, 2010

For this one I have one more session. That will be a lot of work to tackle still – I only consider the central body part to be final. I painted the model in a very different position than she is actually sitting, mixing several perspectives into one – which has me moving around with … Continue reading Work in Progress Lake2 →
