AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Romy van Rijckevorsel is a contemporary Dutch artist who has lived and worked in Vlijmen since 2002. She was born in 1967 in Drunen and initially worked for many years as a portrait painter before enrolling at the Academy of Fine Arts in Arendonk, where she earned her diploma in Painting in 2017. In 2017, van Rijckevorsel transitioned to creating her own independent artworks, focusing on paintings. Her work has been included in collections both domestically and internationally. In 2021, she won the first prize in painting at the Kunst.nl-Art-Award. Romy regularly exhibits her work.
Call upon the gentle warmth of spring with 'fIRSTSPRING,' an enchanting acrylic painting on canvas. This figurative work, influenced by street art and portraiture, captures the essence of youthful joy and family love. The artist beautifully depicts a tender moment, reminiscent of a vintage photo, immersed in the soft light of the first spring day.
Feel the nostalgia wash over you as you watch this heartwarming scene. The artwork invites you to reflect on cherished memories and simpler times. The artist's modern approach to a classic portrait creates a unique and captivating visual experience. It speaks of safety, protection, and the unwavering belief that everything will be alright.
Ready to hang: no, the painting is carefully rolled up and packed and must be re-stretched by your local picture framer. Sending (extra-large formats) paintings rolled is safer and more environmentally friendly than sending ready-made works. The canvas can easily be re-stretched by a framer at your location.
An authenticity certificate is included.
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)
