In this painting, a pheasant looks at you with a confident, almost regal gaze. The bright red skin around the eye contrasts beautifully with the deep blue neck and warm brown feathers, built up with loose, tactile brushstrokes. The background almost seems to move. A swirling suggestion of wind and snow, in cool blue tones that enhance the play of colours on the bird.
The mood is fresh but dignified, like an early winter walk where something wild and beautiful suddenly appears in front of you. The work feels cool but vibrant, and perfectly suits people who have an eye for detail and a penchant for nature, birds or classic elegance. In a library, dining room or country setting, this pheasant comes into its own: stylish, striking yet understated.
My inspiration for creating a collection of animal portraits was inspired by my childhood, growing up among animals. My parents kept goats and sheep, among others, and that is where my love for nature and animal life was born. Each animal had its own character, its own look, its own energy, and it is precisely this diversity that still fascinates me. In these paintings, I try to capture not only the form, but especially the soul of the animal.
