AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Painting is a necessity for me; it's how I share the stories that fill my imagination.
I embrace spontaneity in my work, preferring to start without a preconceived plan. This allows the painting to evolve organically, resulting in a fresh and dynamic piece. Using acrylic on wood, "Icon nr. 1" is a colorful, contemporary figurative painting in the classic and portraiture styles, depicting the holy Mary. The artist's eclectic approach brings a unique perspective to this iconic subject.
This medium sized painting, reminiscent of a traditional icon, would be a beautiful addition to any room. The focus on the subject's eyes draws the viewer in, creating a personal connection. The artwork's vibrant colors and unique style will add a touch of Dutch art to your space. Bring this captivating piece into your home and let it tell its story.
Seller's Story
The work of Romy van Rijckevorsel is daring, colorful, very inviting for personal interpretations and not without obligation!.
Romy van Rijckevorsel paints in an eclectic way. In her work you see many references to classical artists. (eg Gustav Klimt, decorative backgrounds, but also Egon Schiele). It is also eclectic because of the different styles: drawing, graffiti, painting and
graphic elements. All these elements are very successfully combined into an organic whole in which there is also a unique handwriting lurking. That is very smart, because the combination of references and styles can also go wrong very quickly. In Romy's work, however, she stops at exactly that
right moment. The paintings are very postmodern in the sense of "everything is possible" and yet it is not restless at all. On the one hand the works are very decorative and on the other hand also hard and almost provocative and vulgar. Yet they are balanced, partly due to
the strong composition. (jury report Painting of the year 2020, eventually finished 9th out of 1250 applications)
