Description
The artwork “Scrooge Duck Express” created by artist Diederik van Apple is a unique piece that uses modern art techniques to create an impressive visual impact. Measuring 150x95cm, it is made of aluminum and high gloss resin.
The piece portrays the famous character Scrooge McDuck as the background of an American Express credit card, in a reference to the culture of consumerism and capitalism. The use of the Disney character in this context suggests that in our society, money often becomes more important than life itself, and that the pursuit of profit can be a form of imprisonment.
The combination of aluminum and high gloss resin creates a mirrored effect that enhances the depth of the artwork, giving the impression that the image of Scrooge McDuck is floating in an infinite space. The edition of “Scrooge Duck Express” is limited to only 10 pieces, which adds exclusivity and value to the artwork.

Presentation
Diederik van Apple is born and raised in Leiden, Netherlands, in 1985. During his childhood, Diederik was addicted to all comic books, including Tin Tin, Walt Disney, and Marvels books as well as legendary movies like The Godfather, Scarface, Pulp Fiction and James Bond. He loved watching, reading and fully go up in the stories, as if he was part of the play himself.
In 2003 he started his Law study but after two years he found out that he couldn't express his creativity in this study and decided to stop. In 2005, he started as an Art Representative in an Art Gallery in Amsterdam. During those years, he travelled around the world participating Exhibitions and Art Fairs for the Art Gallery and found his true passion.
With his experience, artistic insight and passion for art, he started to think of designs for his creations. Combining his fantasy with the artistic vibe where he lived in for the last years. There was no line between work and free time and he started to build up to unlimited ways of digital mix-media art. After his first launch in 2017, he made several series of limited editions, which were sold out in no time.
This was the beginning of Van Apple's artworks and his career. He took his time for 6 months and brought out amazing new series. After his latest releases, he decided to go deeper into the creative vibes and took a single flight to Ibiza. The most artistic island on the earth was a great success and frequently new things are coming up. At the moment, his artworks are popular worldwide under international galleries, art lovers and investors are intrigued by his style.
The art of Van Apple is a combination of digital techniques, such as photography and famous characteristics. The basis of the art is aluminum or gold foil. Then he adds holograms, colors, glitters, diamonds and other handcrafted items. All artworks are finished by hand with several layers of epoxy. By adding these layers, he is able to create innovative and unique mix-media art with a fantastic 3D effect.
