Portrait Francis & Nina


The portrait of Francis and Nina is finished! It took a while but i'm very proud of the end result. The painting hangs in the BovenIJ hospital. When the portrait comes back i'm going to give it to the parents of Francis and Nina.

Exhibition BovenIJ Hospital Amsterdam

Six works of mine are hanging in the BovenIJ Hospital in Amsterdam (since april 11th).
An unexpected exhibition possibility. Got a phone call from 't oude Badhuis (where i have my painting lessons) they asked if i could bring some work the same day.
I took everything from the wall and brought it right away.

If you want to take a look, here is the route to the hospital.

New technique

I found the site of Eileen Sorg, an American artist.
She developed a special technique for her colored pencil works. The darkest parts are drawn and filled with black ink. Then the painting is made with water color and as a finishing touch worked over in colored pencil.
Her work looks fantastic, i'm going to give this technique a try too! As soon as there is some progress, i will upload some pictures.
