About the Item

A travel into the past. This is a reflection of the struggle of the black race for survival, equality etc. The 2 portraits is my representation of who we are - royals, warriors, and survivors. We as a race need to picture ourselves as royals, warriors and survivors. I have depicted the ongoing battle with warriors in the background holding shields, spears. The figures all around the painting signifies unity. The traditional xylophone on the lower right sums it up. It is made of straps of wood joined together with strings and underneath are gourds of various sizes all tied together which when played produces that rich sound. :: Painting :: Surrealism :: This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist :: Ready to Hang: No :: Signed: Yes :: Signature Location: Bottom right :: Canvas :: Landscape :: Original :: Framed: No

The Meeting -15-02-22, Painting, Oil on Other
By Corne Akkers
Located in Yardley, PA
Landscapes of Old This oil ‘The Meeting’ has a long story. Ages ago, before my cubist and roundistic revolution, I was more into landscapes and surrealism. Even though I already sketched models I feel like I did more landscapes and cityscapes than now. One of the last oil paintings I made was ‘Autumn Tree at Laren (2013)’. The urge for painting trees suddenly came to a standstill and was replaced by the love for the female form. Pandemic Gone, New Beginning Now I am sitting here behind my desk, writing this art statement. Our current Secretary of State for Health Ernst Kuipers declared the end of the pandemic yesterday. Next to this I long for Spring more than I ever did and want to do landscapes again. It is not a coincidence when you clean up your house certain artefacts come popping up. Cleaning up means emptying your mind to make space for something new. Springtime This landscape of a windmill from above I started back in 2011. I put that oil face...
