In the Hague I saw this wonderful scene of people riding a tram. The trams used to be all yellow brownish with red stripes but I guess advertising can change all that. But I definitely like the blue though.

Merry Christmas! The last painting of this year is situated in The Hague, the same city where I now have my solo show at the ROI.

Tram Platform shows a young girl standing on a platform waiting for her tram to show up. She's holding her cell phone, but she's looking up at something behind the viewer. I don't usually paint my figures like this, but it sure adds something extra here.

Through the window of the tram we see another girl playing with her phone as well. I couldn't paint a scene like this just a few years ago. It seems like we now spend every free moment with our phones. We grew so attached to it. The trams used to be ad free too.

In january I'm picking up my daily painting practice again. You can expect a small painting almost every day. I'm also planning on publishing more articles on my other blog about my philosophies on art and life or society in general. For now I wish you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

kind regards, Gerard

The Tram

In The Hague you got these nice trams with red and some kind of light brownish yellow which I love to paint. Near central station I saw this man waiting for his tram to show up. The one right in front of him isn't his, or if it is he better hurry and get in. The scene reminds me of my museum paintings, because of the abstract background and the window. Tomorrow the preview continues!

kind regards, Gerard Boersma

The Tram

During my visit to The Hague I saw this man waiting at the tram-stop near central station. Obviously the tram right in front of him wasn't the one he was waiting for, but I saw him looking at the man inside. It was almost like he was looking at a painting in a museum and thought it was a beautiful motif for todays painting. I think it just might work on a larger size as well, let's find out!

kind regards, Gerard Boersma

The Departure

I saw this tram leaving during my visit to The Hague. The tram was crowded and people were jumping aboard in the nick of time. It always intriques me when people are put together in places with other people they don’t know. All these people have a different background and their own story to tell. I wonder if they took the time out to get to know one another a little bit during the ride. Next time I will jump aboard too and find out!
