Stone.








You can let go your imagination on a normal stone. He is not so normal, a river stoneis very good to start : is very smooth and nice shaped by the water. For example, you paint the stone in black and I put my left hand on it in dotpaint.

Ibiza


A few weeks ago we took the car (on the boat) to Ibiza (several days). You can take the boat from Denia to the island. With a fast sailing ship it is just 2 hours, with a slower ship it will take 4 hours. "Ibiza is just my style" and a photo of the boat.

Art on a palm leaf.


A palm leaf can also be useful. These are dried leaves of a king palm tree (photo), painted with dotpaint. They are about one meter high, easy to move and excellent to refresh home interiors.

I am also looking for an art representative. Someone who deals with the commercial aspect of an artist, so I have more time to paint. Now it´s looking for a needle in a haystack and you must have the right person in front of you, someone who believes in you. A positive attitude is the message.

Canvas.

Here I am again.


I was a few weeks without internet connection, but everything is resolved. Meanwhile I started to paint on canvas. A different approach and labor intensive. This is pure fantasy, no more drawing sketches.

As a beginner, just an example :



Also new is a slideshow on the right. The subject regularly would change.

Safari Aitana.




Safari Aitana is located on 3000 feet altitude, 35 km from Benidorm http://www.safariaitana.com/. The animals live in semi-freedom. Recently I visited the park with customers. I promised to put a photo of the group on my blog but I laughed so hard with Dutch people that I have bad pictures. Therefore "LAMA IN BUS" photographed on one of my previous trips.

New dotpaint!

This was recently made on paper (7x5 inch - 1 inch = 2,54 cm) and a major change. The dots are placed next to each other. It gives a stronger effect and reproduccion in large format is possible, this is harder in the previous dotpaints. I am also dotpainting on canvas ( large format). In another message more about canvas, it could be that the canvaspainting would be offered on sale in a seperate website. I am also thinking of holding exhibitions and selling my artwork on artmarkets. Markets enough on the Costa Blanca.

Portrait in Dotpaint!

This is the result of a portrait in dotpaint. Striking is the fact that Mrs. died a few years ago but they told me after the hand over of the painting. And it seems like a tribute to the person with the aura that is located around the figure. Coincidence or .........

A friend , she liked my work, asked me if I wanted to make a dotpainting from her mother. I thought it was a challenge, but I started with a small heart because this was the first time that I made a dotpaint from a portrait.

First I made a sketch drawing. The head and face appeared to me the hardest and with that I started.

Her hear was simultaneously a challenge and fascinating because there were so many colors in it.


I got more confidence after a while. I was satisfied of the result but I would make some adjustments.

Such a varied picture with many details wasn´t easy.

Below you can see the portrait of the woman. The persone was the most important, the rest was background.

Are you interested in a dotpaint from your portrait or a beautiful picture? Send me a message and ask for an quote. Remember to give me your e-mailadress.
