Serie- Flowerfields

Tulip Highway

4-2023, acryl + markers on paper, A4
This started as a fun experiment with some acrylpaint, some tape and a squeegee. For this project I had a refference photo, and my idea was to bring out the simplicity and beauty of the picture. After roughly laying some paint down, I went over it with the squeegee. It gave a fun effect, and it worked even better than I could imagine! With a paint marker I made some extra lines, which made quite a diffence, I painting on a few tiny cars and then it was finished. This fun project sparked a few more ideas that you can see if you scroll down my portfolio.

Wildlife crossing, Apeldoorn, Netherlands

4-2023, acryl + markers on paper, A4
After making a few flower fields, I was mesmarized by the top view and I looked for more reference photos to use in this project. I came by this beautiful picture of a wildlife crossing in Apeldoorn. The same way I did with the flower fields. I love how from the drivers perspective, it's just like going under a small tunnel, but by changing the perspective it changes into such a beautifull sight. 


Aquaduct Veluwemeer, Harderwijk, Netherlands

4-2023, acryl + markers on paper, A4
After making the wildlife crossing, the aquaduct couldn't miss ofcourse!


From sketchbook to artwork

No pictures used, to test how ''well'' I still knew my surroundings, and how I could use notes and a sketch to make a final piece.

Mural at Cycle Centre, Centerparcs Huttenheugte

2019, paint and brush, 66m3
This work took quite some planning for a 17 year old. This was my first project, and I didn't think small! I started by making a sketch on paper, that I then transfered to Photoshop. In here I made the whole artwork itself, so it could also be used for different porposes. There isn't anything that you can't see in this mural that you can't do at this park.

Collage

With this collage I playing with the idea of giving away your heart for love, and someone claiming it. You give away your heart, but you get nothing in return. The only thing you get is emptiness and heartbreak.
