Blue Cavern

A collegue of mine (thx Tara) send me this link:
http://www.ericascheper.nl/album.php?albumid=6


This shows the work of dutch painter Erica Scheper.

I quote a little from her site:

Mijn werk gaat over de dromen van mensen en de pijnlijke kantjes van de realiteit.

>> My work is about the dreams of people en the painfull sides of reality

Daarnaast werk ik aan een serie schilderijen met smurfen. Ik plaats ze in een situatie waarin je een smurf niet snel tegenkomt, maar die voor mensen heel normaal is, zoals op kantoor. Dit werk gaat ook over kinderdromen en over de realiteit van het volwassen leven.

>> Beside [other themes] I work on a series of paintings with Smurfs. I put them in a situation where you would not find a Smurf so easily, but which are for people very normal situations, like being at the office. This work as well is about children's dreams and the reality of grown ups lives.

Just before my holiday, trying to get the last things finished my collegue pictured me like this (thx again Tara)


I really like them, no favourite yet, but i guess has to be the one below...

PS I contacted her about prices and how she started using Smurfs, maybe a secret collector herself?

Thanks for sharing, Ron.

They look terrific!!!

Those are really beautiful portraits!
