About The Artwork
expand_more
This painting is about three friends engaged in a conversation amidst a sunny outdoor setting. Positioned under the sprawling branches of a bare tree, the trio exudes camaraderie and relaxation. The figure on the right, in a plaid jacket, contributes to the scene's rustic ambiance with his laid-back posture. A wooden crate with a bottle and a few items placed atop defines the composition, providing depth and context. The blue sky and outdoor surroundings contrast harmoniously with the earthy tones of the men's clothing, amplifying the scene's lively yet peaceful atmosphere. I try to captures a moment of conviviality, I want to paint a timeless celebration of nature and friendship.

About the artist

I am fascinated by people – why we choose to gather, what food we share, which outfits we enjoy. I simply observe, and my observations can fit any period. The spontaneity of such occasions intrigue me, as individuals dress up, place a bottle of their favourite wine on the table, and effortlessly start to talk. I watch. I stare. I also wonder about events before and after the moment I have caught on canvas. Because the image itself is only the start of a longer conversation. That is why I prefer real contact with my subjects, whether they are strangers or my friends. People may have come together on impulse, or the tableau may be staged. Once the group is together, the occasion generates its own unique discussions, expressions, atmosphere, authenticity. Even when lodged in our history, it will resonate today.
I love history and especially enjoy artists like Lovis Corinth, Gustave Courbet and Paula Rego. When I am not painting I like watching movies. Often during painting I will play a movie in the background for inspiration.
