Streetvibes - Johannes Vermeer's street in a playful Polaroid by MadameRuiz

Streetvibes - The little street of Johannes Vermeer in Polaroid The little street of Johannes Vermeer, perhaps as well known as Girl with a Pearl Earring and The Milkmaid. Although Johannes Vermeer made very few paintings in his unfortunately short life, his paintings are impossible to imagine our Dutch art history without. In this modern variation the little street of Johannes Vermeer, this painting is incorporated into a Polaroid with the text 'Streetvibes' underneath. In dark grey, texts and scribbles have been added as if in a brainstorm, giving the work a contemporary feel. Texts and tree silhouettes softly shimmer through the painting, together with a paint texture. This gives Het Straatje a bit more of a grunge effect and fits more with the text Streetvibes.

I am MadameRuiz, and am an artist by profession. I hope to delight you with my work. Here in my profile, or on your wall :) Both are fun!

Will you let me know what you think of my work? I would love to get in touch with you. Also when you have one of my works in your home I am very curious about the end result in your interior.

I love everything that has to do with art, culture and creativity. Experiencing, creating, teaching and communicating. Through language, image, non-verbal and through the musical voice.

I became known for my commissioned ink portraits. My work was first shown to a large audience in the program VTWonen Weer verliefd op je huis (February 2021). I make many ink portraits of and for individuals; from pregnancy portraits, wedding portraits, child portraits, love portraits and family portraits to portraits of pets such as dogs, cats, horses and birds. These ink portraits are all handmade by the way, drawn and painted with east indian ink on watercolor paper.

In my shop at work on the wall you can order my Digital Art. Because I normally work almost exclusively on commission, my autonomous art via Digital Art is really a wonderful experimental outlet. This also means that I keep experimenting with painting techniques and collage techniques using Photoshop. Although I love to experiment, quality comes first
