About the Item
Back to Hatch This graphite pencil drawing ‘Nina – 13-09-23’ a return to black and white but also to the technique of hatching. Last Spring I did a couple of landscapes and I remember ‘Marlot – 27-03-23’ was also executed in hatched strokes. Strange how these different styles linger about in my head. Then all of a sudden and for no particular reason one takes the lead. Or does it? Perhaps my rationality matched my gut feel in this particular situation. I asked Nina if she had some photos with true chiaroscuro tonal distributions. She referred me to this beautiful picture and I guess I saw the potential of the lighting. It certainly would be a match for my hatching skills. You see, througout the years I found out this technique renders me most sutble tonal transitions. This having decided, what’s next on the menu? Cubist Styling Last one of Nina was in done in color. My ambition was to match realism to cubist styling inasmuch people would feel the cubist styling to be real. That lead me to a full array of emotions. 90% found the artwork great. However, there were some nit-pickers that thought I shouldn’t mix up these two styles. Others found the neck particularly bulged, looking like goiter. I don’t mind. Although I have to admit combining styles can lead to confusion. Lovely! I like that and now I know I’m really on to something. Hence, the incorporation of cubism once more in the drawing at hand. Not that much but slightly in order to keep viewers on their toes, catch them off guard. Personally, I think the subtle styling looks a bit similar to the one applied in ‘Julia – 11-09-18’. Jan Veth The hatched strokes were also motivated by something else when I come to think of it. In my previous art statement I mentioned Jan Veth and his works on display in the Dordrechts Museum. One particular pen drawing I remembered, called ‘Louw the Gardener’. Rarely have I seen such gossamer lines meticulasly drawn in inkt. You know, using pencil I simply can erase some lines and start anew. Using inkt there no room for error. Yet, he managed to put all strokes horizontally without noticeable flaws. Then I knew I must do my best even more. We’re speaking of an artist living in an era without daylight lamps and running water. There was no flushable toilet. Transportation sucked big time. So there it is, I have cold and warm water, all the light I need and internet. There are plenty reference pictures and ideas on my screen. Keep going! Erwin Olaf Setting out proportions and laying strokes came all very fine but as the drawing progressed something was missing. Just as with all smashing reference pictures taken by others, put in hunter words: it’s not my kill! So there it was, a void felt inside me that needed filling. In other words, I had to add something to the mix, putting my mark on the composition. Gradually I noticed I associated her and the couch with Erwin Olaf’s Hope series. That was all about women put in 60s and 70s settings. The pattern in the couch surely was conducive to that association. Last but not least I added a framed version of a previous drawing of her in the left uppercorner. The bakelite telephone is a direct reference to Erwin. All in all a bit of a double homage to two great artists.

Nina – 09-08-23, Drawing, Pencil/Colored Pencil on Paper

Located in Yardley, PA
A New Model This graphite pencil drawing ‘Nina – 09-08-23’ marks something new. Not the style though. That more or less is my newly found neo deco. It’s all about the model. About two weeks ago somebody on replied to my last oil ‘Neo Deco – 30-07-23’. That person happened to be a model under the name ‘NinaErotique’. You know by now I’m not into sleazy, unartistic nudes. I’m here on earth to celebrate nudity forged by higher beings as the pinnacle of beauty. Not my words but communis opinio amongst artists at the turn of the 20th century. Apparently she happens to think the same way. The result is a beautiful array of tasteful pictures. Some are nudes, other are about fashion and a bit of glamour on the side. I certainly would recommend you to click that link or visit her website. Clothed She has a lovely body and appearance. However, first I was touched by a photo of her sitting wearing a sheer negligee...
