This Table has seen it all and I love her the most for it. I always prefer to eat, read, play, draw, write or drink at this old kitchen table instead of the big table inside the living room. We need that one too for this old dear one is too small to house the whole family. This time I thought not to spell out everything that's on it so you can make up your own story when looking at it. But you can always ask in case of curiosity! I loved working on this big table and I hope you enjoy it too!. 80x60cm, framed Oil on canvas Shipping Cost: The Netherlands 25 Euro European Union 50 Euro UK 60 Euro USA 140 Euro ROW 180 Euro

Mustard from my beloved England and a very Dutch bitterbal are the perfect marriage! I asked for your opinion ,should I add a bitterbal. The answer was clearly NO. But I kept thinking of it and obviously was missing something in my composition so I added it anyway. Changed the tablecloth to my own favorite one and i'm totally content now!

Last Saturday when I walked back to the car after having had a haircut ( remember when I was bald..), I passed the market place and I was só happy that i'm back to being healthy and having a haircut and feeling feminine again that I bought me these pink flowers.

Blue grape hyacinths are the herald of spring but still need time to pop up their nodding blue heads outside in the cold. We can't wait for it to start but how lovely to have a winter feel too? And to know you can long for spring and all of it is yet to come! Time flies and I'm so grateful to live in a country with seasons. To have them today on my table to paint is a feast but it makes me a bit of a cheat as in the garden the snowdrops are blooming their little hearts out and the witch hazel spoils my nostrils with her gorgeous scent and the Hellebores are trying their best! But here they are my flowers in a flour pot. 18cmx24cm Oil on canvas Framed Shipping Costs: International Shipping: We ensure that every artwork is shipped with the utmost care and with a declaration approach that supports a seamless delivery experience.

I love my new woolen plaid , I just couldn't resist buying it @brechtjeolsthoorninteriors . I wanted to use it as a background and tablecloth in a painting and it's lovely on the sofa too. Venus is inside the diorama I made years ago. The inspiration comes from a painting by Duncan Grant (1920) who was a member of the Bloomsbury Group of which I made my own version too to be able to show where my diorama had come from. Roulin is the postman Vincent Van Gogh was befriended with and I saw the wonderful exhibition @vangoghmuseum and bought this beautiful catalogue which is a lovely read as well. Oilily is the maker of the coffee pot, it's in our family for many years, I used to have the red one as well but I dropped it. I dried the dahlias which I got from my brother and his wife from their lovely garden. The pink snooker ball is my third so I feel a collection is on its way. The lovely green vase is a birthday gift from my daughter and son in law. The huge blue and white serving plate belonged to my mother and has my little green friend for company. The napkin belongs to a handmade tablecloth I bought on Tenerife. Our first holiday abroad with our toddler and my daughter in my belly. I remember digging a hole in de sand on the beach so I could lay on my tummy for a bit. The funny wooden cook is a thrift find and I have no idea what it's meant for.  Oil on canvas Framed 50cmx70cm Shipping Cost: International Shipping: We ensure that every artwork is shipped with the utmost care and with a declaration approach that supports a seamless delivery experience.

I love to lay a table with personal meaningful things. Filled with memories but maybe you have your own memories or make up stories when you look at it! The small wooden shoes were for my daughter when a toddler, I forgot to put them on in time, the plate is one of a series I collected throughout the years from Anthropology by Lou Rota whenever we were in England with the family. The Tabasco bottle made by @kly.vanmy was love at first sight! The van Melle tin is a lovely gift from my oldest friend I grew up with. The blue plate is a free interpretation of a favorite one that I always loved as a child and now is part of our lives. It's the start of my forever love for blue and white china! The Union Jack butter dish is a souvenir from a lovely UK holiday with the family long ago. Yayoi Kusama is one of a Kokeshi d oll collection by @sketchinc.becky . I love to collect things and be happy every time I find a new one! The strawberry cup is a gift by my nephew who comes to stay a few times a year since he was a kid. So very sweet! The little plate( apple) was painted by me. It has my little frog friend on it. The Staffordshire dog has made her appearance in earlier paintings. The red napkin is actually a quilting fabric.

Just to be clear, it wasn't my intention to make a political piece but it sure triggered me. Headscarves are of all times and no matter what the reason of choice for wearing is, sickness, religion, fashion, it's aesthetically pleasing and shouldn't be an issue whatsoever. The background is inspired by a gorgeous scarf by Hermès, given to me in 2015 by my daughter and son-in-law. It was a total surprise and the fact that they had chosen this particular one which is so entirely me, made me feel loved, special, spoiled and happy. I cherish it and each time I wear it I feel beautiful. I'm thinking she's asking me to give her something in her hands but I'm still listening to her. *I gave her a flower, so many around her and not one for her just didn't feel right. 60x80 cm Oil on canvas/framed Shipping Cost: The Netherlands 25 Euro European Union 50 Euro UK 60 Euro USA 140 Euro ROW 180 Euro

This is my impression of the Montagne Sainte-Victoire which was one of Cezannes beloved subjects. Everywhere I looked I seemed to see this mountain and having tried to follow some of his creative path whilst being there ( Aix-en_Provence)I started to appreciate this domineering mountain and wanted to do my own small version.

My body's broken My mind strong My hearts eyes Are looking And yearning ========================= I'm working on this piece I immediately knew I wanted to make the moment I heard there was a competition on the life of Frida Kahlo. I want to show some of its process and explain my thoughts on it. You can't see it in just one picture which is what one's allowed to send in when you take part. Frida had polio when six years old. As had my father. It is a very contagious virus so she was quarantined and saw practically no one. Can you imagine that at the age of six? I remember my being scared to be left alone by my parents every night when going asleep and that was just for the night and I was healthy! In her body is newspaper as a metaphor for the horrible news she had to carry within her for the rest of her life after the accident. Het foot is open, her body broken and on her tummy there's a fetus for all the baby's she had to loose. There's another thing we have in common so I feel strongly for this survivor! (we were given two beautiful healthy children after six years of sadness) I made the mattress of the daybed of cardboard and raffia, the wood department is Jeroen's. The floor is tiled with paint on cardboard. Another touching story is to be found in the background I painted on the inside of the glass dome. I shall try to make a picture of the whole work tomorrow but I'm having problems with reflections.  Miniature!!! Can't be shipped so either you pick this up or we will deliver it personally if you live in the Netherlands or close to the border.
