KunsT met een grote T – Sept 28 and 29, 2024
I have been busy painting in and around the Brabant village of Nuenen. I grew up there and this is also the village of Vincent van Gogh, where he painted several of his famous works.
In the weekend of September 28 and 29, 2024 I will participate in ´KunsT with a big T´ in Nuenen. During this exhibition artists with relation to Nuenen get the opportunity to exhibit their work in spaces located in the center of Nuenen. I am situated at Berg 34, near the old limetree. Open between 12AM and 5PM.
10% of the proceeds will go to a good cause: the Nuenen Foundation Leergeld. This foundation provides supplies for school and sports season tickets for children who cannot afford them. Great cause!
It would be nice to see you there. Nuenen is worth visiting anyway. For example, the Van Gogh Village Museum can be viewed and the Bonnard art gallery can be visited.
Art Event Doorn – May 24, 25 and 26 2024
Last weekend the annual Art Event took place at Landgoed Zonheuvel in Doorn. Although the weather did not always cooperate, it was a fun and successful event. Thank you for coming! The following paintings were sold. I have to get to work again soon to make new ones!
And the following mini gems have also been sold!
Sunset, sunset, sunset – 5 May 2024
My favorite vacation is the vacation at Terschelling. Every year the same ritual: (a lot of) cycling, eating cranberry cake (at De Heeren van der Schelling in Oosterend), playing soccer, sitting in the sun on the terrace and of course painting. After dinner I cycle to the beach at Oosterend, where the beaches are very wide and it is nice and quiet. Plenty of time for a beautiful sunset, except that the sun sets so quickly…
Art Event Doorn – May 24, 25 and 26 2024
Good news! I am participating in this year’s Art Event in Doorn. This will take place on May 24, 25 and 26 at the Zonheuvel Estate in Doorn. The Art Event annually welcomes us several thousand art lovers. A variety of artworks by renowned artists will be on display. Tickets are on sale at the door and through the Cultural Region. I am raffling off a number of tickets among interested parties who receive my newsletter!
Painting on the beach! – 9 March 2024
A visitor to an open studio once asked me to paint on the beach at Zoutelande. This is really different from other beaches, where there are poles on the beach every few meters, to prevent erosion of the coast.
A wonderful weekend of painting. The weather did not cooperate all the time, but I was still able to paint a few moments. But those poles, they did make me sweat quite a bit…. Still difficult to get a tight row of poles in my painting, without destroying the loose style!
Snow! – 19 January 2024
What a lovely morning! Snow and a beautiful sunrise, perfect. I did two paintings that day, afraid the snow would disappear! I will upload them later!
