About the Item

Martin Koole The Well Read Girl, reading 120 x 120 cm ( framed 124 x 124 cm) Acryl on canvas Martin Koole's paintings are distinguished from the work of other painters by his very headstrong way of applying the paint. His brushstroke makes his work immediately recognizable. This is particularly striking in his portraits. With an apparently nonchalant but accurate hand gesture, Koole brings the sitter to life, not only through the resemblance but also through the use of light. The result is agile and surprising and of great vitality. Making portraits is just one aspect of Koole's skills. He also paints series of dreamy scenes with figures in a sometimes indefinable space and atmosphere, in which their sometimes enigmatic presence poses questions to the viewer. Here too Koole plays with the light. The effect is a balance between reflection and reality. Martin Koole's still lifes show a similar balance in a controlled use of colour. More exuberant are the bird paintings that Koole manages to portray with a somewhat richer palette.

Thee girl in the old House - 21st Century Contemporary Oil Painting of a girl
By Marten Huitsing
Located in Nuenen, Noord Brabant
Marten Huitsing The girl in the old house 70 x 45 cm ( frame is include, with frame the size is 80 x 55 cm) Oil on wood panel The paintings of this artist have been part of the collection of Galerie Bonnard since his graduation (2010) at the Classical Academy of Groningen. Huitsing has quickly become successful, his style, craftsmanship and choice of subject appeals to many people. Yet Marten, he says, does not want to repeat himself. He is always looking for the way of painting that suits him at that moment. The sympathetic artist got national fame because he beautifully portrayed a famous Dutch TV presentator Mart Smeets in the 'Paint the stars' program. Honest, very recognizable and with a narrative painting. Mart Smeets was overwhelmed, praising his comments. Rightly so! From that moment. Marten Huitsing's work has gained increasing popularity, he is an annually returning artist at the renowned PAN and he can hardly cope with the demand for new work. The work that the artist has made for our gallery that there is always a balanced composition. In the collection there is one painting that is directly an ode to an older master, both often with Marten Huitsing. He did that before. In this case an ode to the French painter William Bougeureau...

Young Girl Reading, Oil Painting
By Faye Vander Veer
Located in San Francisco, CA

Artist Comments
A young girl sits at a park on a late summer's day in August, lost in a story of a compelling book. The strong afternoon sunlight highlights her hair and back. "I saw this girl sitting by the reflecting pool in Washington, DC", shares artist Faye Vander Veer. "I wanted the painting to be about her, so I obscured surrounding details and kept the brushwork loose. What was her story, what was she reading?”


About the Artist
Artist Faye Vander Veer seeks out moments with engaging narratives and captures them with an impressionist style. She describes herself as an observer of people living their day-to-day lives. Her goal is to offer viewers a look into her sensory memory while also prompting the beginning of a story. Faye always keeps her camera by her side, ready to capture reference material. "For me, each painting is an opportunity to explore my emotional reactions to the color and light I observe," says Faye. She enjoys being in her glass-walled studio surrounded by nature to inspire her creative process. When she is not putting paint on canvas, Faye can be found in nature, journaling or writing poetry. Her artwork has been showcased in both American Art Collector and Art of the West magazines.
