Inspired by one of my smaller daily paintings I did earlier this year. I just needed to paint a larger version of it. I'm loving the black and white vs color contrast. Of course that look Steve Jobs has on his face is just great too.

Walking down main street recently this shop window caught my attention. That reminded me of what artist Pierre Bonnard once said: "Paint that what made the biggest impression on you." That's just what I did.

Sale is the last painting for this week as I'm preparing to post larger scaled paintings next week. Hope to see you then!

kind regards, Gerard

SOLD

There's always someone playing chess outdoors at the Max Euweplein in Amsterdam. Just perfect for a daily painting!

Again I painted it with more lose brushstrokes. While painting I always get into this flow or light trance if you like. I don't really know what I'm doing, it just happens and the painting paints itself. Even more so when I paint like this. I like that.

kind regards, Gerard

acrylics on masonite
6" x 6" or 15 x 15 cm

SOLD

It's been a while since my last update, that's because I'm working on larger scaled pieces as you might have guessed. But I did find time to paint this wonderful scene of a woman and her child walking.

I'm experimenting a little with style here. It's a bit more lose than usual, but I think I like it. How about you?

kind regards, Gerard
