Monoprints
(2013 - 2023)Themes are often about nature: wetlands, animals, especially birds and hares are common.. Some are abstract / expressionist prints. Prints are done using acrylic paint.
Birds in gouache
(2022 - 2024)A series of paintings / mixed media art work using gouache. Most are painted on vintage postcards. I love those cards that have writing, stamps and a history. What's on there may influence the composition of the painting. Sometimes it's because of the shapes, stamps and script. Sometimes it is also the history, the route taken by the card or the people writing that affects the painting or its title.
Portrait drawings
(2017 - 2023)Drawings of portraits/faces in graphite, charcoal and other mediums.
Portrait paintings in oil and acrylic
(2019 - 2024)Portraiture is my focus. Drawings and paintings. Here I group together paintings ranging from realistic portraits to intuitionist/expressionist faces
Lockdown collages / wabi sabi collages
(2020 - 2021)A series of art works, small sized. Collage out of painted and (mono)printed paper using acrylic paint. Subseries: silly landscapes, abstracts. During lockdown in early 2020 I started these collages. Small as I could only work at home. They are meant to be uplifting for maker and viewer. Also called wabi sabi collages: they were made intuitively, accepting the beauty of imperfection. The process was meant to be mostly fast and intuitive.
