Directions, lines and angles are the starting point in my work, - the abstract resulting in a figurative outcoming. Within the space of the canvas form and restform are equivalent, leading to harmony. The difference is made by contrast, light against dark, flowing against tight. To reach this classical techniques are being used. Ink for the big area’s, afterwards refined by conté, thus bringing on layers giving depth to the painting. I hope the viewer witnesses my own world, more than a figurative image representing reality.
