Artwork location: Netherlands
The artwork presented is a compelling abstraction, seamlessly blending an array of earthy and neutral tones to create a dynamic fluid painting that hints at natural formations. The overall palette is dominated by shades of smoky grey, deep blues, and stark whites, which intermix elegantly in a manner reminiscent of ocean waves or river flow under moonlight. The piece's smooth texture belies its swirling patterns that evoke a sense of movement and life. The artist has utilized a technique that involves pouring and manipulating acrylic paints, resulting in organic, dendritic patterns that are both spontaneous and deliberate. The central area of the painting is particularly striking, where a burst of white creates a focal point, drawing the viewer’s eye into the depths of the composition. This painting’s unique aspect lies in its ability to simultaneously convey tranquillity and intensity. The fluidity of the forms suggests a perpetual motion, akin to the constant ebb and flow found in nature. The deliberate use of contrasting light and dark shades effectively creates a sense of depth, making the painting appear almost three-dimensional. This, coupled with the meticulous attention to the interplay of colours, speaks to the artist's refined technique and profound understanding of the abstract form. In conclusion, this artwork stands as a testament to the beauty of abstraction, masterfully capturing the essence of natural elements within a strictly modern aesthetic. Its ability to evoke powerful imagery and emotions through the subtle manipulation of colour and texture makes it a captivating and enduring piece.

Presentation
Els has been a dedicated sculptor the last fifteen years and most recently started in the worlds with paints with the pouring technique.
What is her style?
Pouring paint over canvas. This is her style in regards to painting, in essence Els is a sculptor. Creating sculpture is a very time consuming and physical activity that needs a lot of fore thought and time.
Why is her style special?
At the gallery we talk a lot about Dendritic design, which is the scientific term for how paint (lungs, rivers, lightning) flows. In essence all pouring paintings inherently have this dendritic design. However, it is the combination of this dendritic design and colour understanding that creates Els's enigmatic pieces, that resonate nature as well as colour. Pouring has a very physical element to it and Els brings her sculptors eye into the technique of pouring. She works very large works and with complicated colour patterns. Els has a very good eye for creating large and complicated pieces. Pouring can be very messy and easily become muddy or an failed attempt, especially in the scale Els makes her work. The subtle yet complicated colour pieces attest to Els's patience, skill and own keen eye.
What are her artistic qualifications?
Els has never been to art school, but has always practiced art by following courses in painting, sculpting and even flower arrangement. She has been a sculptor these last fifteen years, following courses over the years by other artists and sculptors in Delft. In essence Els has apprenticed years with artists out of the Delft region. She combines this age old form of apprenticeship in person, with new age apprenticeship through online tutorials. Pouring has been an internet sensation these lasts years and Els is self-taught. She however brings decades of experience as a sculpture and a keen eye into her newest painting endeavor, which we whole heartedly enjoy at the gallery.
