2016/2017: The Philippine series
These are the 11 paintings I painted in the Philippines in the winter of 2016/2017. All paintings are 122x76x4cm and mounted on a nice sturdy wooden frame including hanging system.
Friesland – SOLD
Inspired by a photograph of a Frisian landscape, I started this painting. I have made my own version of it. The proportions of the landscape in the photo are not the same as those of the painting, so I “stretched” the image slightly.
Butterfly Fish – AVAILABLE
The beautiful underwater world of the Philippines has inspired me to make this painting. I was surprised at what lives there. Fish, coral, shrimps and snails in all colors of the rainbow. These are the beautiful Butterfly Fish painted on an abstract background.
Summerbreeze – AVAILABLE
The flowers are roughly painted and the fresh colors look good. The flowers seem to dance and that is why the painting is called Summerbreeze.
New Zealand – AVAILABLE
This landscape reminds me of New Zealand. I went there a few years ago and I thought it was really beautiful.
Sweetlips #2 – AVAILABLE
The Philippines has a beautiful underwater world. I have therefore made a number of dives there. One of my favorite fish is the Sweetlips.
Royal Affairs – SOLD
These are a queen and a princess: the Royal Affairs. The colors are intense and at the same time calm on this canvas.
De Alchemist – SOLD
This painting reminds me of the book the Alchemist. This landscape resembles Spain and Italy.
Fields of Joy – SOLD
Every field of flowers that I paint is different in terms of color and composition. Fields of Joy has mainly purple and pink hues and the wild flowers pop out.
Indian Summer – SOLD
It has really become a warm late summer on the canvas, hence the name Indian Summer. A surreal landscape to look at for a long time.
Veldbloemen in vaas – AVAILABLE
The only two-piece from the Philippines series. The colors stand out well because of the dark background.
Amsterdam by Night – SOLD
This is Amsterdam by Night. It has something mysterious about it.
