Julia – 02-08-19 Last year I used dancer Julia Gómez Avilés as a model. Next to being a wonderful person for an artist she is ideal because of her flexibility. She can pose in many ways and has lots of stamina. This drawing is not from a live drawing session but based on a picture I saw in her Instagram account. I wanted to do this one because of the extreme pose and the challenge to render her complex body position in a credible way while still adding value to the theme. The drawing shows elements of roundism, realis mand surrealism. Graphite pencil drawing (Pentel 0.5 mm, 3B) on Canson Bristol paper (21 x 29.7 x 0.1 cm) - A4 format) Artist: Corné Akkers -
ainting: Oil, Acrylic, Airbrush on Canvas. In this work there is a large number of red, yellow, blue colors. This work will be a worthy decoration of your luxury home. This painting belongs to the series "Neo-Cubism" Neocubism is a modern trend in cubism, with its modifications and evolution. In this case, I present to you the work performed in my original author's technique. In the technique of Neo-cubism the main thing is to convey the emotion of flight that was inside me during the drawing of the picture. DETAILS * ARTIST: Valdem * TITLE: "The Sword in the Stone" * SIZE: 60 cm x 90 cm x 2 cm 24" x 35" x 0.8" * COLORS: Blue and white. * STYLE: Modern, Abstract, Neo-Cubism * CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY is included. * MEDIUM: Oils, Acrylic, Stretched Canvas, Varnish, Airbrush. * HAND PAINTED: Hand Painted Original Painting From My Art Studio! * SIGNED: Front and Back * Regular Side Stapled Stretched Canvas * Free Worldwide Shipping The painting comes to you already on the Regular Side Stapled Stretched Canvas. For a better view, you can use a frame suitable for your interior and the picture itself. Turning to the workshop that is in your city, you can choose the best frame of your choice. I carefully coat all my works with varnish in order to give glossiness and enhance the saturation of work. Thus the work becomes more resistant to sunlight, water and mechanical damage. Caring for such works is quite simple. It is enough to take a soft cloth, wet and wash the work without strong pressure. Painting and objects of art is one of the most durable things in the world and for decades the work of varnished remains unchanged. -

Roundism – 17-09-18 This is the fourth drawing of model Julia Gómez Alivés in which I combined my roundism with colors. I washed them a little bit with a Sakura water brush that works like a fountain pen. I am not a great watercolorist and since this technique is pretty new to me these watercolor pencils allowed me to take a position between a colored pencil drawing and a watercolour painting. Perhaps I do more in the future. Watercolor pencil drawing (Faber Castell – Albrecht Dührer) on Strathmore Drawing paper (21 x 29.7 x 0.1 cm - A4 format) Artist: Corné Akkers -
Sans titre – 30-07-18 I was captured by the high lights at the top and the bottom and decided to keep the planes straight, putting the stress on the rough edged character of the figure. I also didn’t straighten out much of the lines and planes for that reason, keeping it a kind of worked out sketch rather than to refine and soften it too much.

Roundism – 10-03-18 The challenge was to create maximum flow but still maintain a recognizable female figure. Therefore I wanted no section crossing another in order to create a feel of weightlessness. I beefed up the tonality a little bit in order to get some more figuration and to avoid that the overall drawing would appear to be shallow. The bubbles and fingers were added in order to relate the spectator to the image and still be able to enjoy abstract body forms.

Sans titre - 27-02-16 (sold)
Part of the sans titre series, depicting Bette Davis, American actress and celebrity. Everyone knows Bettie Davis' eyes by Kim Karnes. Enough said? Not yet. I thought Bettie's eyes to be cubist rather than round.

Gouda - 30-06-17
A view on the Sint Janskerk from Museum Gouda at Gouda, Zuid-Holand, Netherlands. I noticed the branches of the tree in the front mimicing the direction of the stained glass windows of the church, perfectly matching my theory on singuarity of curved lines not touching straight lines into eternity.

Roundism - 10-05-17
A pastel variety on the previous drawing 'Roundism - 02-05-17' in which I tried to match the found styled forms to a colour scheme that would match them. It was a hell of a job to balance them all.

The Shins (live@Paradiso) 20-04-17
American band 'The Shins' performed at music temple 'Paradiso' at Amsterdam last 30th March 2017. I was there and was fascinated by the strong cubistic light triangles and the colour differences (yellow, purple, red).

Roundism - 02-05-17

The return of the dutch elephants (@ Gouda) - 12-07-17
Some time ago I saw a cloud that perfectly looked like a baby elephant. I got the idea to draw the canal realistally and transcend into a more abstract mid-section (trees in my roundism style) and end in a surrealistic scene, thus combining impressionism, realism, cubism, roundism and surrealism.

Cubistic nude - 11-11-16
Another model in colour and in straight cubistic planes left open to breathe. I wanted to have the negative space be an integral part of the cubistic parts as well in order to cultivate the necessary unity to obtain.

Bettie Page - 28-08-17
Returning to Bettie Page once in a while because her body was so slender and enables me to exploit my style of roundism to the max. In this drawing I tried to keep the forms open as much as possible while the extended lines beyond the forms create new forms, even animals!

Roundism - 29-05-17 (sold)
A pastel version of the graphite pencil drawing 'Roundism - 26-05-17'. I used the primary colours red, yellow and blue to honor 'De Stijl', a dutch art movement that celebrates its 100 birthday this year. Mondriaan was all about moving about planes and lines in his ever search for the perfect composition. I think I will work out the previously described principle of singularity in works to come. By singularity I mean that curves approach straight lines or planes without ever touching them.

Sans titre - 05-05-17
This one represents Darja Collin, fomer wife of J. Slauerhoff, a great dutch poet and writer of the 1930s. I liked combining circles, rectangulars and triangles in this one.

Roundism - 28-04-17
Part of the roundism series, in which I wanted to keep a big part of the body open and indicate and style only a portion of the shades.

A pastel version of the graphite pencil drawing 'Roundism (singularity) 01-06-17'. This is a first worked out principle of singularity. By singularity I mean that curves approach straight lines or planes without ever touching them.
