Yvonne Michiels''Maud'' Contemporary Dutch Portrait of a Girl, Mixed Media Painting2023
2023
About the Item
In her art, Dutch photographer Yvonne Michiels (1966) depicts personal stories about beauty, emotions and mortality.
In order to heighten the emotional charge of her pictures, Yvonne often uses young models. Their honest innocence and insecurity underscore the major theme of vulnerability in Yvonne’s work.
Her models are young and fresh faced. As they pose for Yvonne’s camera, she tries to capture not only their strength but their vulnerability as well. Those lovely girls and boys are in the height of their beauty, but that too is fleeting.
Yvonne uses topical examples from modern society. This results in aesthetic, innovative portraits that are not only fascinating, but also moving. Her technique allows her to imbue her portraits with multiple layers of meaning. Thus, the viewer is continually challenged to look further, to uncover the dimensions hidden in the work.
In her new series called “I am a masterpiece” Yvonne shows the vulnerability and beauty of every individual. At a time when insecurity is amplified by social media, she invites the viewer to see the beauty in the imperfections, origins, orientation, etc. and to admire the works of art that we all carry within. In a society where the pressure to be perfect can often be overwhelming, Yvonne believes we are all masterpieces.
''Maud'' is created from several photographs combined printed on a large wooden panel. Using wax, oil and acrylic paint, she makes each work unique and gives the canvases the look of old masterpieces with a modern twist.

''Bouquet of Roses'', Contemporary Still Life with Roses in a Orange Vase
By Sasja Wagenaar
Located in Utrecht, NL
When you look at this painting ''Bouquet of Roses'' by Dutch artist Sasja Wagenaar (1959) from a distance you see a perfectly painted image, but up close a generous paint streak is visible. She has a unique way of applying shadow and light effects in her paintings.
Sasja Wagenaar is inspired by our classic masters from the seventeenth century, a flourishing period in Dutch painting. The century in which new continents, markets and arts were discovered. At that time in the Netherlands it was a real fad to collect chinoiserie. Originally porcelain, but also Dutch pottery, also known as Delft blue, inspired by Chinese and especially by Japanese bowls and vases.
To quote Sasja Wagenaar: ‘Every platter, every bowl is already so much in itself. They were made with great care through hundreds of hands before they ended up here. Their character must be respected in composing the story that forms a still life. They are as alive as the blossom branches and I try to let them speak together. Slowly the image is created’.
Although rooted in the 17th century Dutch tradition, her work shows her very own signature and is contemporary. As a true Modern Dutch Master...

''September Morning'', Contemporary Dutch Oil Painting of a Landscape
By Frank Dekkers
Located in Utrecht, NL
Frank Dekkers (1961) is a landscape painter par excellence. Full of dedication and diligence he always works on location outdoors, defying the elements. The weather plays an important role in his work: an emerging early winter, heavy summer rain, lightning storms and flaming sunsets form endless sources of inspiration.
Like 19th century painters as Monet or Renoir he takes his easel, panel and oil paint outside where Frank finds the peace and quiet to create his paintings. Being outside, experiencing the landscape, the passing of the day, is what makes him paint.
Dekkers masters many techniques, such as etching, woodcutting, ink drawing and painting in oil. Whatever the technique he uses, his work is always recognizable by his unique signature.
He can accurately depict the essence of the landscape, using minimal resources. By reducing his subjects to lines, surfaces, colors and light, he shows us his interpretation of the landscape without it becoming unrecognizable to those who haven’t been there.
On the back of every panel Frank notes down the coordinates, the exact spot Frank painted the landscape. Type the coordinates in Google Maps...
