In the corner of the bookstore I spotted these two friends. Whenever I look at a book like this it never cease to amaze me how one's life can be reduced to a small pile of paper. It tells the whole story, but then again the story isn't the same as the person.

 This Is Not A Book About Magritte

I jokingly entitled this painting of a book about Magritte after one of his most famous paintings of a pipe. However, on the cover here you see his work Tree With Crescent Moon. On the right you a book about Kirchner, the expressionist painter.

Somehow people often compare my works to that of Edward Hopper. I feel honored they do so and I thought it would be fun to create a bookshelf painting with a book about Hopper at its center. A detail of his best known painting Nighthawks is on the cover.

This painting combines two things I love doing most in life: reading and painting.
In the center of this bookshelf you see a book about one of my favorite artists Johannes Vermeer. His Milkmaid is on the cover. You can view a detail picture of it below.
The museum show in Joure looks great! I spent the latter of the day decorating, it always takes more time than I anticipate. Fortunately, the museum people were just great. They assisted me along the way and I like to thank them for it! I'll post a couple of pics soon!
kind regards, Gerard

please keep in mind that the actual size of Vermeer's Milkmaid is about the same as that of a post stamp

 Crows
Woman Viewing Vincent Van Gogh's Wheatfield With Crows
G. Boersma
acrylics on masonite
± 2.3" x 2.8" or 6 x 7.3 cm
2011
email me your best offer
I decided to call my extremely tiny paintings oddments again like I used to in the very beginning of my blogging days. These paintings are about 2.3" x 2.8" or 6 x 7.3 cm in size and usually done on left over pieces from larger sized panels.
Todays oddment shows a close up of a woman enjoying Vincent Van Gogh's Wheatfield With Crows. Rumor has it that this is the last piece painted by Van Gogh right before he went insane and committed suicide. This isn't true according to art historians, but I can clearly see why people like to think so.
Wheatfield With Crows really is an eery painting with the vibrant darkblue sky and the crows flying directly towards you. It might not be the final painting done by Van Gogh, but is sure is symbolic for the nearing end. It definitely is my favourite piece by him!
My larger sized painting I keep talking about is finally completed after more than 2 months of hard labour. I'm now thinking about how to present this work the best way I can.
If you're interested in purchasing Crows just send me an email with your best offer and the painting might be yours.

The second painting on one of those small panels I talked about earlier shows a man enjoying a work by artist Jeff Koons. The painting is situated at the Rubell Family Collection in Miami. The Rubells are well known for their major collection of modern art. As a matter of fact, they have so much art that they build their own museum!
Todays painting is the only painting I'm posting this week. I want to update more, really I do, but the larger piece I'm working on keeps me from doing so. This painting consists of more than 750 little portraits and really is a lot of work as you can imagine. It's about two-thirds done already and I can't wait to complete the final part!
You probably noticed that my blog got a brand new look. I'm still messing around with it a bit, but I sure hope you enjoy the new look thus far!

I had so much fun painting those light effects on this pair of high heels by Manolo Blahnik. I feel it turned out quite nice with the purple background!
By the way, this pair is last one in this size for now. I got 2 more 6x6" shoe paintings lined up for ebay. After that I'm returning to some urban subjects, I feel it's about time!
I also continued working on my larger scaled painting. As a matter of fact I have for most of the time this week, hence the few updates. It turns out nice, but it's soooo much work. Imagine painting something near 120 cm x 90 cm or 48" x 36" in size with the smallest brush you can find. It will be all worth it though!

One thing I absolutely love when you do paint as much as I do, you keep getting better and better. Of course there are always areas to improve on, but still, you see progress as you go along. I realized this today again when lookig at one of my works from about 10 years ago. Kind of nice to see. I couldn't paint todays high heel by Manolo Blahnik back then, but it sure feels good I can nowadays. Hope you enjoy this one!

It's been a while since my last update. I kind of got caught up in a larger scaled painting which potentially can be quite newsworthy. I'm not telling what it is yet, but I can tell you it's quite different from what you used to, but then again it's not. Sounds vague? Well, excelent! In any case it will take some time before it's finished, but slowly but surely I'm getting there.
In the meantime I did paint a couple of shoes, which I will be posting this week. After that I'm returning to some other beloved subjects and of course I continue working on my larger scaled painting.
The AAF went very well by the way. Loads of people showed up and a famous television host here in the Netherlands now is the proud owner of 2 of my shoe paintings!

I finished the larger sized painting I was talking about last week. I cannot show it yet as I want my models to be first to see it, but it turned out to be a real beauty.
Today I went back to my series of shoes. After the Jimmy Choo's I saw this lovely red pair of high heels by yet again Christian Louboutin. By the way, yesterday Petra of Amstel Gallery gave me call. She told me she found some beautiful luxurious black giftboxes for the shoe paintings. I can hardly wait to see the boxes for myself!
This friday at 17.00 hours the groupshow 'Skrift' will open at broadcaster Omrop Fryslan in my hometown Leeuwarden. Curator and former hostess Aly van der Mark picked out artworks which are related to writing. I show 8 pieces, including my largest painting up to now: The Thinker. It would be my pleasure to welcome you as my guest!
kind regards, Gerard

Whenever I have a hole in my shoe, it usually doesn't look classy at all. Either it means I need to repair it or buy some new ones. Not so with todays high heels by Jimmy Choo, it looks real classy to me!
If you're interested in purchasing this painting, please email Amstel Gallery for more information and price.
In other news, I just started working on a larger scaled painting again. It features some famous persons, well at least in The Netherlands that is. I'm not going to tell who they are yet, I tell you in due time, but I can tell you that the painting is going to be a beauty!
kind regards, Gerard
