Blue Gown- Painting Of Woman Enjoying Painting By Kees Van Dongen

Blue Gown
painting of woman enjoying painting by Kees van Dongen

G. Boersma
acrylic on masonite
8" x 8" or 20 x 20 cm
2018

SOLD

The Dutch painter Kees van Dongen married Augusta (Guus) Preitinger in 1901 and painted this almost life-sized painting of her the following year. She gazes provocatively through her eyelashes, her hand placed nonchalantly on her hip.

Working with areas of solid colour and bold contrasts is a typical feature of this artist’s work. The painting was directly inspired by Van Gogh’s bright colours and expressive brushwork.

'A picture must possess a real power to generate light and for a long time now I've been conscious of expressing myself through light or rather in light,' Henri Matisse once said. I guess that's true for one of his most beloved paintings entitled the Dance 1. My figures sure seem to love this painting.

Le Rêve- Painting Of Woman Enjoying Painting By Picasso



Le Rêve
painting of a woman enjoying painting by Picasso

G. Boersma
acrylic on masonite

2017

SOLD

The woman on my painting is enjoying Le Rêve (French, 'The Dream') by Pablo Picasso. Picasso then 50 years old, portrayed his 22-year-old mistress Marie-Thérèse Walter. It is said to have been painted in one afternoon, on 24 January 1932. It belongs to Picasso's period of distorted depictions, with its oversimplified outlines and contrasted colors resembling early Fauvism.
