Hema is a well known warehouse in the Netherlands. Almost every store has a street counter as well which offers drinks, bread and warm snacks. On my painting you see a woman standing right in front of one those street counters, waiting to get served.

I really love painting small reoccuring moments like this. It might appear as insignificant or even trivial at first sight, but I strongly believe that great truths of live are to be found in just those moments. The molehill is the mountain.

kind regards, Gerard

Street Counter - painting of woman selling food on street counter

In Holland you got this warehouse called Hema, every city got one. They sell all kinds of stuff, but they're really famous for their sausages. Nowadays most stores have a street counter where you can buy the sausages and sandwiches without going into the warehouse. On todays painting you see a woman selling food at one of those street counters of the Hema. It's almost closing time and all the customers went home, except for one painter.

kind regards, Gerard Boersma
