10.10.26De Storm (The Tempest)- Painting Of A Man Enjoying A Painting By Bart Van Der Leck De Storm (The Tempest)
G. Boersma Click here to view the auction The man in my painting is enjoying a painting by Bart van der Leck. His 1916 painting De Storm (The Tempest or The Storm), uses radical abstraction, elementary shapes, and primary colors to capture the essence and raw, stirred emotion of a gale-force coastal storm rather than a detailed realistic scene. All the best, Gerard 
7.10.26Marilyn- Painting Of A Man Enjoying A Painting By Andy Warhol Marilyn
G. Boersma Click here to view the auction This piece originally began life as a commissioned work for an art collector in Italy, but I misunderstood the request and painted the wrong Marilyn entirely. While I immediately created a new, correct version for the now very happy Italian collector, this initial painting is still available. I hope it finds a great home after all. All the best, Gerard
6.10.26Bomb Hugger- Painting Of A Man Enjoying A Painting By Banksy Bomb Hugger
G. Boersma The man in this painting is enjoying Banksy’s Bomb Love (also known as Bomb Hugger). Originally conceived as a powerful critique of state-sponsored violence, the iconic street piece shows a young girl tenderly embracing a massive aerial missile as if it were a cherished teddy bear. The subject engages with the visual contrast between childhood innocence and mechanized destruction. Ultimately, the artwork's message is that universal compassion and love hold the power to disarm hostility. If you look closely on the second picture you see my painting Hope hanging right next to it in Galerie Coste in Deauville, France, 2018. On the right you see a glimpse of a soup can by Andy Warhol. Not bad company! All the best, Gerard 
5.10.26Whaam!- Painting Of A Woman Enjoying A Painting By Roy Lichtenstein Whaam!
G. Boersma Click here to view the auction Standing in front of Roy Lichtenstein’s 'Whaam!', you are hit with a massive, loud wave of comic-book energy. I love the sharp contrast between that explosive background and the quiet presence of a real person just taking it all in. Ultimately, to me the painting is about the idea of staying completely calm while the world around you explodes. All the best, Gerard
2.10.26Space Invaders- Painting Of A Man Enjoying A Painting By Space Invader Space Invaders
G. Boersma SOLD The man on my painting is enjoying a painting of a Space Invader from the 1980s video game. All the best, Gerard
Clown- Painting Of A Man Enjoying A Painting By Kaws Clown
G. Boersma SOLD In this painting you see a man admiring a contemporary piece by the artist Kaws. The featured artwork spotlights his renowned "Companion" character—a clown-like figure heavily influenced by vintage animation stylistic elements—sitting with its white-gloved hands pulled over its face. Kaws routinely utilizes this distinctive, shielding posture across his work to channel a deep sense of modern isolation, vulnerability, and internal struggle. Mixing this exaggerated cartoon sorrow with a real man's quiet reflection creates a captivating space where two worlds meet. All the best, Gerard
1.10.26Composition With Red, Yellow And Blue- Painting Of A Woman Enjoying A Painting By Piet Mondrian Composition With Red, Yellow And Blue
G. Boersma SOLD The man on my painting is enjoying a painting by Piet Mondrian, the pioneering Dutch master whose iconic work represents a search for universal harmony and a spiritual cosmic order through pure geometric abstraction. Mondrian’s reduction of form to essential vertical and horizontal lines represents a quest to uncover the ultimate, hidden reality of nature. In capturing a viewer standing before this strict abstraction, I reintroduce the human element into the composition, completing the narrative journey from pure idea back to living reality. All the best, Gerard
29.9.26Girl With Tear - Painting Of A Woman Enjoying A Painting By Roy Lichtenstein Girl With Tear
G. Boersma SOLD In this painting you see a man enjoying a pop art painting entitled Girl With Tear by Roy Lichtenstein. During the mid-to-late 1970s, Lichtenstein began parodying and honoring early 20th-century masters like Salvador Dalí, René Magritte, and Pablo Picasso in his signature comic book style. The central motif—a giant, isolated eye shedding a single tear—is a direct nod to classic Surrealist imagery, which often used displaced body parts to create dreamlike, unsettling landscapes. By placing a realist figure within this space, the scene creates a compelling mix of Surrealism, Pop Art, and Realism in return honoring Roy Lichtenstein in my own way. All the best, Gerard
28.9.26Polka Dots- Painting Of A Woman Enjoying A Painting By Yayoi Kusama Polka Dots
G. Boersma SOLD In this painting you see a woman enjoying the vibrant, hypnotic rhythms of a Yayoi Kusama polka dot painting. For Kusama, these dots are not mere decoration; they are symbols of infinity, the vast cosmos, and a lifelong tool for survival. She turned to drawing dots as a coping mechanism to map, contain, and control her terrifying psychological experiences. Kusama often notes that a polka dot carries the form of the sun, symbolizing the energy of the entire world and representing a space with no beginning or end. As the woman looks at this boundless sea of dots, her contemplation reminds us that we are all interconnected particles of this space. All the best, Gerard
25.9.26Femme Au Chapeau- Painting Of A Man Enjoying A Painting By Picasso Femme Au Chapeau
G. Boersma SOLD In this work, I capture a male viewer engrossed by Pablo Picasso’s 1939 masterpiece, Tête De Femme Au Chapeau. Picasso's painting functions as both an intimate psychological portrait of his muse, Dora Maar, as well as a reflection of the anxiety gripping Europe on the cusp of World War II. Art historians often note that Picasso’s Cubist distortion in 1939 was no longer just an aesthetic experiment; it was a literal mirror to a broken world. Yet, my painting underscores that while history may experience periods of profound fragmentation, our capacity to seek meaning, preserve empathy, and find enduring beauty through art remains an unbroken and hopeful force. All the best, Gerard
