My grandfather (he wanted to be called grandfather, rather than granddad or ‘opa’) was a painter. His Don Quixote hangs in our living room. I’m very curious what he would say about mine.

Hard-Edge Paintings.
This study consists of 3 series of 3 paintings, using the Hard-Edge technique that emerged in California in the 1950’s.
Each series is based based on an algorithm and starts with a full composition, using my colour pallet inspired by the Paris Metro. The second painting is a deconstructed version and the third painting of each series uses just Red, Blue and Yellow, and the values of Black, Grey and White, the colour palette that the members of De Stijl became so famous for, to better understand its power.
