Corry Kooy
Dutch Cows- 21st Century Contemporary Dutch Landscape Painting with Cows

2018

About the Item

The internationally acclaimed Corry Kooy immediately impressed us with her pastel drawings and oil paintings. Her test in her oil paintings and the proficient manner in which she uses the pastels in her drawings can be called virtuosic. Raft and to life she shows the mobility and colors as she perceives them. This enables the artist to produce striking paintings and drawings. Corry Kooy lives and works in the silver town of Schoonhoven. When we walk through the town with her, from her home to her studio, we notice that many people know her, everyone greets her and Corry cheerfully returns. In the studio, on a shopping street, through the works of Corry her love for the topics immediately. Beautiful pastel drawings of flowering plants, young calves and cows grazing on the floodplains. On the photo you can also see where and how Corry makes her work. Outside, when she paints or draws a subject that is outside. When the subject is inside, inside. In the silver museum we look together with the artist a collection of drawings she made of silversmiths. These are exhibited in the museum. Those who were models were all so enthusiastic that they bought the works themselves. Corry has already earned a lot of prizes. This summer she won two more medals for her pastel work in France and in England. A lot of international recognition has also ensured that her work abroad is also popular. After her academy time (Rotterdam) Corry followed many studies with artists she admired, and she still does. Corry wants to continue learning. This learning takes place partly in England, among others at Tom Coates. She was proclaimed "Maître de Pastelist" by the French Pastel Society. Corry herself about her work: I try to catch the movements of the animals in the open field or on the farm. The movements of musicians, dancers, but also of silversmiths. Movement is important for Corry. She also likes to be inspired by dancers and musicians. Because she draws and paints to a model every week, she practices a lot in quickly setting the essence of the movement. This comes in handy when drawing and painting dancers and animals. Because of the dynamic nature she likes to work with bistre and pastels. Sometimes later with oil paint worked out in her studio. Corry travels a lot to, among others, Tuscany, France, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Thailand. Eastern cultures in particular have a special attraction for her, because of mysticism and silent power. But daily life is also a source of inspiration, such as markets, sun-drenched squares or the tea pickers in Sri Lanka.
