This Blog contains my paintings,mostly acrylic on canvas or watercolor on paper.I make them just for a hobby ,but if you might be interested to buy a particular painting,please feel free to contact me. (db.ruud@yahoo.com)
Besides showing my paintings,I also describe topics that I find interesting or important w.r.t.painting. You can receive updates by registering as a follower.Happy browsing through my gallery and have at least the fun,I had by creating the paintings,such as for instant the colorful cat with the butterfly.As you will see,I love colorful scenes with a lot of details,except when I try to practice the (Japanese/Chinese) Sumi-e style which mainly consists of black ink on paper.This style concentrates on the essence of a particular object,not so much caring for the details.
Symbiosis
Here you will find some pictures of the painting-club where I create (apart from home) most of my paintings.Once a week we work together under the supervision of Lisa van Nispen.Besides “hard work”,we judge our mutual works,have fun,drink coffee ,organize expositions,visit galleries and sometimes we eat together.It is a very stimulating environment.
