When I was younger I was really focused on having a style or niche and staying within the parameters of that decision, but I don’t worry about that stuff anymore—I just paint whatever feels good to paint. Art needs an audience though, so I came here 😊

The reference for this painting of Saint Paraschiva of the Balkans was an icon that I saw in a little Russian Orthodox church in Alaska. My Grandmother's name was Paraschiva, so in a way, I made this painting for her.

Icon-style religious painting of Saint Paraschiva featuring a gold leaf halo, deep blue scarf, gold robe, and green gown with a red belt and gold cross. She holds a large gold cross in one hand and a white scroll in the other. The saint stands on raised golden ground overlooking a distant church and serene body of water, under a bright blue sky with soft clouds.

Close-up acrylic painting of a part of a glacier. Glacial ice with sharp, angular spires angling in opposite directions. The ice has a crystalline, translucent quality in shades of blue, white, and teal with lines of black sediment running through the ice. Blue hazy sky above and crumbling pieces of ice below on a narrow strip of sand. Aquamarine colored water at base. Abstract yet realistic, evoking tension and stillness in a frozen landscape.

A person sits at an easel painting a seascape, facing a window with a view of the real ocean beyond. The artist wears mismatched, colorful clothing and holds a brush in one hand while steadying the easel with the other. A black-and-white tuxedo cat sits on a table, watching the artist work. The table holds a vase with a single red rose, a jar filled with artist brushes and a cel phone. The studio has bright yellow walls, a vibrant multicolored rug, and a vase of lilacs placed on the floor. There are 3 paintings on the wall to the right of the artist. One painting is of a cat, the same cat sitting on the table, One painting is of the artist’s mother, and one painting is a landscape of a glacier.

A wash of shadow and light, where silence drips into the void.
Descent of Silence — an abstract ink painting that dissolves the boundary between presence and absence.

- The Asylum Art -
Art and words by Yves
#AbstractArt #Minimalism #MonochromeArt #art
Descent of Silence is a monochrome ink painting that navigates the haunting territory between form and formlessness. Bold vertical drips slice downward from a smoky, textured haze, as if gravity itself is pulling the remnants of light into darkness. The stark contrast between the pale upper portion and the engulfing black base evokes a quiet, melancholic descent—a visual metaphor for loss, memory, or the inevitable fade of clarity. The piece is both meditative and unsettling, leaving space for introspection in its restrained, expressive power. Art copyright ©Yves Broeckx

I love to paint the ocean. Big painting or small, doesn’t matter. When I paint it, it’s as though I’m there! It’s Ocean magic!!!

The first thing she did was kick off her shoes. And then she began to stroll, smiling when the surf touched her toes.

The water’s still a little stirred up after the weather rolled through.
This painting, “Afternoon Storm on #LakePontchartrain,” captures a bit of that energy just as the sky starts to calm.

Acrylic on canvas, 12 x 24.

Silence. And peace. And calm. I like it here, standing by the banks of this slow, serene river. Its tranquility fills me.

"There's no better place to find yourself than sitting by a waterfall and listening to its music." - Roland R Kemler 

I Experienced SO many waterfalls of all sizes on my recent hikes.
My favorites are the little ones tucked in the woods☺️
Enjoy the music☺️

When I was little, I collected hand fans. Now, sometimes I paint them.
I’ve found that when you move the air, you move energy.
And if you do it with good intent, beautiful things tend to follow. Let’s all fan on…

I love witnessing the wakes of boats and ships. It's not so much the leaving, but the idea that you are headed somewhere new. I am kinda old, and this is an older painting, "Leaving Haines" acrylic on canvas, 16 x 20.

I had a cat companion, his name was Max. He was 2 when I got him and 19 when he died. It was 3 years ago and I still miss him every day. He used to love to watch the birds. This, my painting of him, acrylic on canvas, 6 x 6.
