To me, making art is not a hobby but I wouldn’t call it a job either. It is work that I have chosen to take upon myself and that has to be done. It is deeply personal and highly universal at the same time. To a certain extent it is what defines me. It’s like keeping a diary without words. It is a way to get a grip on life that, at its core, seems to me as elusive as an abstract painting. It is a way to get access to what I don’t know and to what I have forgotten. It is a way to make meaning in a meaningless world. It is a pathway, both towards and from intuition.

I never make sketches. I don’t sit around waiting for brilliant ideas. Everything happens in the process of painting. I just begin. Abstract painting is not about ideas. It is about visions, dreams, misty archetypes, intuitive sensations, sorrow, joy and other poetic soul stuff we all share but most of the time can’t ex-press for the lack of words.

Nature is the great inspirator. Many people have compared my paintings with great vista’s, cloud forma-tions or even cosmic nebulae. The surroundings where I have been living the last 14 years, a beautiful, slightly rolling landscape under great wide open skies in the North of Holland, has certainly had an impact on my painting.

Curiosity is what keeps me going. There’s wonder and mystery in seeing and experiencing what hap-pens if I put paint on a canvas, by trying to stretch the limits of what is possible to depict on a flat rec-tangular piece of cloth. Making abstract art is like bringing a vision, laying dormant in the soul, to the light of day.

“The dreamers are the saviours of the world. As the visible world is sustained by the invisible, so men, through all their trials and sins

and sordid vocations, are nourished by the beautiful visions of their solitary dreamers. Humanity cannot forget its dreamers; it cannot let their ideals fade and die; it lives in them; it knows them as the reali-ties which it shall one day see and know. Composer, sculptor, painter,

poet, prophet, sage, these are the makers of the afterworld, the architects of heaven. The world is beautiful because they have lived;

without them, labouring humanity would perish.”

- James Allen -
