Reclining nude - 20-01-15 A somehow expressionistic kind of pastel drawing that came from a live drawing session with my favorite model. Since they cost so much for a private session I take pictures so I have the poses I need for multiple works, making it profitable but in this case I got the material I needed in time and there was plenty of time left for a live drawing. She laid down and was relaxed after working hard. That was the perfect atmosphere to get her relaxed features on paper. Pastel drawing on Canson Mi-Teintes Touch paper (50 x 65 x 0.1 cm) Artist: Corné AkkersMy work can be seen in many countries all over the world. I employ a variety of styles that all have one thing in common: the ever search for the light on phenomena and all the shadows and light planes they block in. My favorites in doing so are oil paint, dry pastel and graphite pencil. It is not the form or the theme that counts but the way planes of certain tonal quality vary and block in the lights. Colours are relatively unimportant and can take on whatever scheme. It is the tonal quality that is ever present in my work, creating the illusion of depth and mass on a flat 2d-plane. I combine figurative work with the search for abstraction because neither in extremo can provide the desired art statement the public expects from an artist. Besides all that, exaggeration and deviation is the standard and results in a typical use of a strong colour scheme and a hugh tonal bandwith, in order to create art that, when the canvas or paper would be torn into pieces, in essence still would be recognizable.
I teach art (drawing / painting) at Voorburg, Netherlands where I have my second studio next to my first at The Hague, Netherlands, where I live.
