Back in 2024, I participated in the Postcard Art Exhibit, a charity event artists can donate 5” x 7” pieces. This year it’s far from me, but I wanted to send another. Hopefully a good progression from the last!

Had fun making this long then collage strip from all kinds of leftover pieces!

'Be my complement'. With this piece I challenged myself to use a limited palette and to paint over a lot of darlings to make the design simpler. This will be exhibited in September in galerie Arti-Shock in Rijswijk.

Many reasons why I love this piece! That yummy red that pops off the painting because it's surrounded by these muted colors and chromatic grays. The layers are delicious, some translucency, or a hint of underlying color. Fresh off-white gives a feeling of openness and dark brown so chocolaty!.

Collage made with photos I made of worn painted surfaces and ornamental shapes.

It's wonderful to see many of our artists here! As the social media landscape is changing, we need to find new ways to connect. Please share our profile with artists that you believe can help our simple concept of creating a hand-painted postcard that is then exhibited and sold for charity.

When you're not feeling well and still push ahead to prepare for a show, things go wrong...
