db Waterman Profile picture Two children walk together through a field of beautiful red flowers, where everything niog is beautiful and cheerful.
They are heading towards a dark forest through which they have to pass to get to where they want to be. They go together .
At the end, the beautiful red light shines, indicating that their goal has been reached.

The painting is about friendship and overcoming difficult things in life together.

True north is your inner feeling, or your calling, of what you want to achieve in your life. It is a combination of your values, your beliefs and your purpose. It keeps you on the straight path that is true for you. And it is different for everyone. There are no two people for whom true north is the same....

For children, this is true like no other. They are still close to their inner feelings and are still full of expectation about what they want and can achieve in life.

The original painting was created on a 100 x 70 x 2 cm canvas using the following materials:

Canvas, magazine paper, pencil, acrylic paint, oil pastel crayon, varnish glue

I remembered that as a young girl I so much liked to cut images from magazines to paste them into school agendas, scrapbooks and even on my bedroom door. Add to this the fascination I always had for walls filled with old posters, flaking paint, scrappy billboards and weathered paint, it opened an unexpected door for completely new opportunities. Completely unintended I found a new way of working, I felt pleasurably and comfortably at home in. What started out as copying old walls with worn out posters has grown into many series of new visual storytelling. Not simply just eclecticism, but bringing together many seemingly incoherent story lines into one completely new story, my own personal story. Initially it lacked the one thing that is important to me, the transparency that normally only is possible with the use of watercolor. The unforgiving layering of transparent watercolors is a challenge I would not want to miss and after a lot of trial and error I finally succeeded in getting the collages as transparent as a watercolor. Every layer of paper, oil, acrylic, pencil, crayon, ballpoint, watercolor, ink, charcoal and whatever else I use, remains visible in the artwork. You can imagine it made me feel the queen of the ball !
