Abstract representation of two people. Everyone is ordinary, everyone is special. What is important? The simple things in life are very special. Little moments of happiness. A familiar, sweet and happy moment with your loved one. A nice conversation. A view of the sea or the mountain. A person who says something very valuable to you. From my memory I portray these moments symbolically, always emphasizing the person. I portray the person or people (the other and 'I') in an abstract way. Therefore the emphasis is not on the specific appearance of a person, but on the emotion, the inner self and the interaction between people. The paintings are expressive, with big lines and colours. The ordinary becomes special and the extraordinary becomes ordinary. Because society puts so much emphasis on speed and achievement, I find it important to emphasize the ordinary and simple. That's why this series is called: Ordinary People.
