The Lines Two

I'm having so much fun painting these little gems. The panel is only 3.5 x 2.7" or 9 x 7 cm, but it's a real thrill to make as realistic as possible. You really need a steady hand here, especially painting the piece of art on the right. It looks like a Mondriaan, but it is actually a painting by another painter from the Stijl movement called Van Doesburg. The scene is situated at newly build Museum Belvedere for contemporary art in Oranjewoud. The painting was shown at my open studio last weekend.

In other news, my painting The Door from a couple of days back was sold but is now available again. If you're interested just send me an email stating the title.

Have a great day!

kind regards, Gerard Boersma

The Lines

In nature there are no straight lines, it's invention of man and a pretty useful one I may add. I'm not sure if you can see it but the woman is wearing a shirt with stripes and I thought the contrast between this and the painting is quit interesting. It shows that nature doesn't allow perfectly straight lines.

The painting on the right by the way isn't by Mondriaan but by Van Doesburg, another artist from De Stijl movement. While painting it I noticed his compostion is very solid. You can't leave one line out, otherwise the whole image looses its power. Quite surprising!

kind regards, Gerard Boersma
