Original artwork description:

Vanishing Winter - a large statement artwork with the promise of spring!

Vanishing Winter is a dynamic, vibrant, energizing artwork in bright and tender colours. The colours and bold brushstrokes are standing in a strong contrast to some shades of grey and fragile, tender pencil-lines.

The sides are painted. Professional hooks are already mounted, so you just need two nails to hang the painting. Sealed with a silk glossy varnish.

Signed on the front and signed and dated on the back.

One of the photographs is showing the artwork in progress, just as I painted the first colour-sketch on the canvas. After that several layers of colour were added, some thick and some thin, so that the painting underneath shines through. Just have a look at the close ups!

Vanishing Winter will be an eye-catcher for your room!

160 x 200 x 2 cm.

I find my inspirations in colours and materials - for example in a beautiful deep turquoise mountain lake or in the washed-out grey of concrete in a city. Based on such impressions and inspirations I commence my work and my artwork often comes to life in little series. Each painting is unique and the creation and development of each painting is a time consuming and slow process, usually lasting many weeks and in some cases up to a few months.

My paintings are acrylic mix paintings, for example, acrylic paint with charcoal, oil pastels, pencils, spray paint and many other artistic materials. I often combine these materials with natural materials and objects from nature (e.g., leaf seeds) as well as with ash, sand or building materials such as grout or plaster.

My pieces of art are created informally. Each step builds on the previous step, leaving room for chance but also for corrections and erasures, until the final finished artwork has evolved as a composition of colour, shape, texture and surface.

Due to the complexity of my paintings and the interplay of (collage) materials, my works are not simply one-dimensional, rather they entice the viewer not just to explore them with their eyes but also to touch them.

My works of art are informal; they are my personal expressions of my experiences and impressions and each piece of art is truly unique and only one of its kind.
