Classic Bobby in the Louis Vuitton Trunk

MASTER SERIES - inspired by Rembrandt's technique.

A new signature, developed as a self-taught artist, inspired by Rembrandt's technique, Rick has been working on more classic works over the past 3 years. The works consist of 6 to 8 layers of paint and are used with glazing techniques, (Frottis) dry brush techniques, Impasto technique and Alla prima technique (Wet in Wet) on parts in a specific order.

To achieve the result Rick has in mind, he imports mediums, siccatives and pigments that are not available in the Netherlands. mainly from France and Germany. Due to the complex ingredients, home-made paint and the long drying time and time-consuming details, creating a master series sometimes takes longer than 2 years.

The contrast in the painting in each piece is in line with Rick's philosophy behind the new signature. The depth created between detailed pieces and rawer parts makes the works speak. The viewer, from a distance, experiences a detailed Work of Art, but when approached the rough painting comes to light. Whereby thick blobs of impasto paint become visible. This loose way of painting allows a work to be interpreted again and again, experienced differently and new parts come to light for the viewer. This is in contrast to realistic or photography art.
