Description

Original artwork :It was a beautiful day, the sunlight was shining on the red roofs and the row of golden daffodils at the skyline. It will be springtime again in my Dutch polder.The Netherlands is frequently associated with polders, as its engineers became noted for developing techniques to drain wetlands and make them usable for agriculture and other development. This is illustrated by the saying: “God created the world, but the Dutch created the Netherlands”.”The landscapes of Van Nieuwenhuijzen are extensive, born from an intense experience of the openness of the Zeeland area. An undertone of mysticism is unmistakable. As if caught in line and color movement continues in the invisible behind the horizon. The accentuated line is both the boundary and the window. The subtle differences in rhythm and nuances reflect a range of emotions.”Materials used:acrylicTags:#landscape #painting #dutch #springtime #nelly van #red roof #cloudy sky #golden daffodils.
