I painted the Ikea store a couple of times now, but I find there 'gallery' too interesting not to paint. Not that I actually like what there showing there, as an artist I cannot stand these reproductions on canvases and calling it art, but it's just the contrast between those 'pieces' turning into real art when I paint it. Also abstract paintings suddenly are realistic. It raises questions about what real art is and isn't. If you know me a little by now, you probably know how I think about all this.
In other news, the show in Groningen just ended yesterday. The show went really well. A lot of visitors came to see the show and I sold a couple of paintings there. I would like to thank Maurice and everybody at SBK Amsterdam and CBK Groningen for a great show!
kind regards, Gerard
