Autumn light over OLV Square, Maastricht - 3

The Our Dear Lady (Onze Lieve Vrouweplein (Maastricht: Slevrouweplein)) is a square in the center of Maastricht. The square is located in the oldest part of the city, just outside the late Roman castellum. The square gets its name from the Basilica of Our Lady, which dominates the square with its massive westwork. Our Lady's Square is best known for the Chapel of the Star of the Sea and its catering terraces.

Onze Lieve Vrouweplein is the smallest of the three main squares in the historic part of Maastricht. The square is located in the southern part of the center district Binnenstad, where it forms the border with the Jeker Quarter. The square itself belongs entirely to the Inner City, but the southern street wall (house numbers 15 to 20) is considered part of the Jeker Quarter. Streets opening onto the northern part of the square are: Bredestraat, Wolfstraat, Havenstraat and Plankstraat; in the southern part are: Cortenstraat, Koestraat, Hondertmarck, Sint Bernardusstraat, Graanmarkt and Stokstraat.

A beautiful autumn scene, atmospherically sunny that radiates tranquility and peace. The original is also for sale but via briex.eu

Contemporary images and even those from the past inspire me to recycle them for re-actionary contemporary impressionist art. My drawings and paintings are sketch impressions in a loose and free style, the paintings in a colorful palette. I also produce collages and digital artworks or find new inspirations and compositions through paint strokes from existing works. I work fast, from emotion, averse to perfection, careful not to lapse into details and endless fiddling.

Compositions in an almost unfinished state, works that are part of the contemporary impressionist incentive. Evolving towards a more questioning abstract essential contemporary expressive impressionism.

With the internet we are overloaded with thousands of images a day, wonderful. But does original art on the wall still have a future? Yes, you can touch them, feel them, smell them. Paintings and drawings that move and stimulate you, that give you attention and immerse you every day in a bath of total relaxation and pleasure. People say that I am one of the most appreciated and renowned post-war art painters from South Limburg. I sell my original works all over the world. I very much appreciate the cooperation with Werk aan de Muur / Oh my Prints because my originals are now also available for everyone through excellent, high quality re-productions.
