The Happy Place paintings are originally hand-painted colourful abstract works in a small format. The approach to painting is intuitive. You follow your creative tendencies, applying all kinds of technical aspects of painting (such as composition, use of colour, contrast) so as not to end up with a shapeless grey mass. But you do not start from a preconceived plan. As an artist, you don't know where the work will end up. In this way, every painting is a surprise not only for the viewer but also for the maker. So when is it finished? When it feels finished 'feels'. That is up to the maker. Then, as a viewer, you can let your imagination run wild with such'abstract artworks. What do you feel about it? What does it evoke in you?
Happy Place 001 to 004 are photographed in great detail, so they can also be printed in a larger format. So close up and enlarged, all kinds of interesting elements stand out, which hardly attract attention on a small work. Like the easily perceptible brushstrokes and variations in the applied lines and markings.
Let your eyes wander in these colourful little happy worlds.
