No QR Codes today, but a still life painting of books. The painting shows books about Led Zeppelin, Kings of Leon and of course John Lennon. Those youngsters in the lower right are the New Kids On The Block. I guess pop music changed dramatically over the years.

This painting caused quite a stir already.

I created it for the upcoming groupshow about Frisian landscapes at Tresoar in my hometown Leeuwarden. It gave my art dealer quite a shock when I showed it to her. So much indeed that she's considering not showing it.

You see, all the other artists like Jan Mankes, Jopie Huisman, Gerrit Benner to name a few all show traditional landscape paintings. Compared to those works, mine's the ugly duckling of course.

But when I look at the Frisian landscape I see signs like this as well. Unlike other artists I thought it would make a wonderful motif for a painting. It might not be romantic, but it's there alright.

My art dealer wasn't convinced. Then I pulled out the big gun. I said to my art dealer: 'When art moves you, it's great art.' It was clear my work made her feel something, just not what she expected to. 'That's right,' she said.

Still I'm not sure if she wants to show this painting or not. We'll wait and see. The show opens with or without my work this saturday at 15.00h. You're cordially invited!

Finishing that larger scaled painting took way longer than expected! But this whole week I'm posting one larger scaled painting each day.

First up is this painting of a CCTV, inspired by one of my smaller daily paintings. Sure hope you enjoy it!
