A place for studies after painters I return to — not to repeat them, but to understand how their paintings breathe.
Colour, light, gesture, composition, silence. The old language, still alive in the studio.
Works where animals move from subject into psychological presence — protection, instinct, fear, devotion, and the private architecture of inner life.
This chapter will hold the newer figurative works as they enter the archive.
Still Force
Tiger
Under the Mane
Sovereign Gaze
Blue Witness
The First Witness
Hyperrealist oil painting is not reproduction. It is extended looking — finding in a living subject what a photograph cannot hold: the weight behind the eye, the intelligence in muscle and fur.
"I don't paint animals. I paint the moment an animal decides whether or not to include you."

Not decoration.
A permanent
presence.
Hyperrealist oil paintings change the atmosphere of a room the way another person changes it. The works are available for private collectors, hotels, and corporate spaces — anywhere a conversation is worth having.
You describe your space — dimensions, light, existing palette. We discuss which work or direction feels right.
A proposal with one or two works in context. Framing options, installation notes, lighting suggestions.
Purchase or commission. Existing works ship from Rotterdam; commissions take 3–8 months depending on scale.
Available for private collectors, hospitality, and corporate spaces across Europe.
Discuss your space →Small groups visit the studio while a work is in progress. You see the painting at different stages, ask questions, handle the materials. Not a lecture — a conversation in the room where the work happens.
A structured two-day workshop on the technical foundations of hyperrealist oil painting: from under-drawing to glazing. Limited to 4 participants. Prior painting experience required.
A private studio visit for collectors or curators. We look at works in progress, archived studies, and finished pieces not yet publicly shown. By arrangement only.
A one-hour video conversation with the studio as backdrop. For collectors, students, or anyone who wants to understand what happens between first brushstroke and finished work.
