Product description

Amsterdam series

Hotel chic is the term with which Rick Triest prefers to describe his work. Active as an artist for more than 15 years, he creates work with a further developed painting style that is distinctive and unique in the art world. As a self-taught artist, Rick is always developing new techniques and art expressions on canvas or other mediums.

Rick builds his Amsterdam paintings from thick layers of paint and works with a clear handwriting that forms his signature. The thick golden line drawing that completes his work quickly reminds the viewer of Amsterdam in the golden age.

Artist Note: My works in the Amsterdam series are made in several layers of acrylic paint, inspired by Rembrandt's glazing technique. Also visible is the frottis technique of the dry brush in combination with oil pastels from Sennelier (known from Picasso) purchased in Paris. The free drawing style, which I create with charcoal, is also very characteristic. Each layer of the work is exposed through these mixed techniques.

Paintings by Rick Triest are signed and provided with a handmade wax seal. Rick's works are also finished with a layer of varnish.

Certificate of authenticity

Matching luxurious & unique certificate of authenticity is included. Each certificate is made differently and is provided with paint and fingerprints by Rick Triest. The certificate comes in a luxurious upholstered box measuring approximately 15x15 cm and features a gold-plated signature.

Created as a unique piece

Visit the new studio

Located in Beinsdorp (Bollenstreek), Rick Triest has his Atelier & Gallery at home, an attractive space that breathes creativity. The painting studio reminds you of an old apothecary, full of various glass bottles, paint pots, tubes and other other artist supplies that Rick needs to create his work. The smell of wet oil paint, varnishes and fixatives is reminiscent of a painter's studio from the past. When you walk through his studio you see rough work and Rick's process, which provides a special and memorable experience. In his new adjacent Gallery you will find his latest work on display.

Frame making

In addition to Rick's Atelier & Gallery, he has a separately furnished space where he makes his own frames and frames his work. The frames are carefully made by hand with professional equipment. All available frames can be viewed in the studio. The delivery time of a frame is approximately 14 days.
