The process

During my open studio I took some in between time to just play around with some paper. From an ordinary magazine I started selecting nice colours and ripping the paper into strips. I like adding, glueing and seeing what results there are. 

For the second one I used a slightly different combination.

Glue and paper is all you need!

Open studio

At the end of this week I open up my studio again for those who would like to visit. You can see my workspace, and also a part of my studio is set up like a shop where you can buy small items like cards, notebooks and bracelets. And you can see a small part of my paintings which are on display. Contact me for more information.

Welcome!

 

Looking down

Walking slowly, looking at your surroundings, focusing on what your eye catches, which colours you see and what you see below your feet: it unconsciously gives me references for structures, lines and combinations. For instance these pictures I took on a forest and lakeside walk:

When it rains...

... go out! I did and went for a hike, it was quiet in the forest, not many people around (no birds either, they were hiding) but nice autumn colours. And ideas for paintings, compositions and colour combinations.
