Time Limited This oil painting ‘Neo Deco – 30-07-23’ is an elaboration of my graphite pencil drawing ‘Art Deco – 23-08-22’. As artist, my time on earth is limited compared to the deluge of ideas I still want to process. As to this I’d like to paraphrase an art critic (I believe). “Ideas are like rabbits: when you buy one and another one after that, soon you’ll have 10.” This is true. The fact is there is less time to create a painting than the storm I cook up as draftsman. Almost Perfect Why this one then? Because I liked the concept. Especially the audacity with which I created the drawing made me confident to test it in oil paint. For example I exaggerated the highlighted planes in order to enforce the overall tonal rhythym. Next to this, the extrapolated planes outside the body divide the negative space in a nice way. Thus I consider the composition perfect in that way I cannot think of a better one. Perfection, of course, is not something you can achiev
