About ‘Vintage crown caps, Tru Ade’ by Rob de Vries, Realistische kunst
On Ebay, I picked up a small batch of vintage crown caps. I thought it would be fun to make little paintings out of them. This is the first in the series of six.
Tru Ade is from the 1930s and 1940s. There were a variety of flavors and colors without the prick.

My name is Rob de Vries, Dutch Photorealistic painter. I love to spend hours working on the smallest details in a painting.
I make my paintings in oil with only five different colours plus white, with these I can mix hundreds of hues and tints. Each painting takes several months to complete.
With my recent series I try to bring long-forgotten memories back to life. Paintings of precious childhood objects, larger than life size in bright, happy colours.
