ABOUT
MIXED MEDIA
The paintings are created on canvas,
using acrylics and oilpaint, in a layer-
over-layer procedure.
MAGICAL
Original brushtouches of light and a
breath of a magical sphere
characterize the paintings.
LAYERS
The different layers of multicoloured
paint produce a transparancy and a
remarkable holographic view.
MY TECHNIQUE
METHOD OF PAINTING
This way the landscape scenes are created in a colourful transparent
equilibrium of figurative and abstract art. Secret impulses from the
unconscious stimulate my vibrating perception of reality, generating the
fascinating scenes and magical atmospheres, so characteristic of my
paintings.
MY WORK
ABOUT MY ARTWORKS
In my contemporary artworks, the image seems to be levitating and to be full
of soft, delicate feelings, wich are stimulated by colours. The subdued warm
shades-such as red, orange and green-act as a catalyst for emotions. The
interaction between the different materials and the delicate balance of
reality and dreamworld stress the purity of emotions.
WELCOME
TO MY WEBSITE, MY NAME IS
Ann van der Meer. I am a professional artist who was born in the Netherlands and studied at the Willem de Kooning Art Academy in Rotterdam. In my studio in
the garden, Atelier du Jardin, I create paintings and drawings in acrylic or oilpaint and in mixed media. For almost two decades now I have provided adults and
children with education/training and workshops to obtain skills in painting and drawing. This site shows information about me and my work.
DREAMTRAVELS
THE SENSATION OF COLOURS
The paintings created in the project Dream Travels are inspired on my travels through different parts of the world. While painting, I use my impressions and
experiences together with the dreams and unconscious impulses within me. This is the very connection between the paintings in this project: the intertwinning
lines and layers of energy, light and colours generate a magical sensation in the observer. The paintings are made in acrylic and mixed media.
