Water taxi Rotterdam

About "Water taxi Rotterdam"

About the artwork

In my digital painting, I pay homage to Rotterdam's iconic water taxi's as they speed majestically across the waves of the Nieuwe Maas river. This impressionistic artwork brings the energy and vibrancy of the city to life with brushstrokes full of colour and movement.

The visible sketch work adds an extra dimension of detail and texture to the painting, bringing to life the dynamics of the water taxi and the playful splashing water. As the water taxi cuts through the waves, we also see an imposing cargo ship making its way through the busy waterway. The green roof of the Maas Tunnel building on the north side of the New Maas acts as a recognisable landmark and adds a characteristic element to the work.

By choosing an impressionist style, I want to convey the atmosphere and vitality of city life in Rotterdam. The play of light, colour and movement in the painting reflects the dynamism and bustle of the city. This artwork is a tribute to the water taxi's, a distinctive symbol of Rotterdam, and the unique beauty of the Nieuwe Maas river.

Hang this digital painting in your interior and be taken on an imaginary journey through the waters of Rotterdam. Enjoy the energetic atmosphere and characteristic elements that bring this artwork to life. The water taxi on the Nieuwe Maas becomes a striking eye-catcher that reflects the dynamism and liveliness of Rotterdam in your home.
