STILL LIFE
In my free work I predominantly paint still life paintings.
For a still life painting I use objects that appeal to me
because of their form, color and surface structure.
I perefer to paint objects at their real size or somewhat
bigger than their real size. Elements that fascinate me in
a painting are rythm, color, the light and the structure of
the paint-skin.
The compositions of my still lives usually arise as I'm arranging objects
on a table, but often an image will come to me in
advance. Usually it is not my intention to use objects
in a symbolic way, but sybolic references sometimes do arise
unintentionally.
