Selected works VI: Untitled D

Untitled D - Acrylic paint on canvas / ca. 2006/7
Recently re-inspired by my visit to Ruigoord ( pictures HERE ) i decided to pick up, and dust off my brushes again and start working on some new paintings and ideas soon.
I do have a few things that i would like to experiment with, i also hope i can find the time and focus to be a little more productive than last winter...

I have been posting some of my earlier works on this blog before, and here's another one:

Made in 2006 or 2007 , an abstract acrylic painting on a 20 x 50 centimeters canvas, quite colorful and with slight touches of silver and bright yellow that really stand out when well lit. The side of the canvas is painted black to give it a bit of an extra dimension.

Untitled, because i find it very hard to name to my paintings, but it is the 4th, and one of the two smallest in a series of four with this color-scheme.
I have to say i'm pretty satisfied with this one.

If i can find the time i hope to update this blog more often with some more publications of my older works and my progressions on my newer work.

Selected works V: Eclipse

Eclipse / Oilpainting, mixed materials by NetPierre ca. end 1999

Next up in my series of old work is this one, an impression of the clouded 1999 Eclipse, that we experienced in it's 100% zone near Baden-Baden (Germany) at that time.
- that Eclipse was 11th of August to be exact , more info HERE

This object of mixed recycled materials is mainly a wooden panel of 55 x 75 centimetres.
The object is painted with white spraypaint on a black background. It is finished with several layers of transparant matte paint. The sides of the panel and left and right upper-corners are covered with a water-based bitumen-product that i don't remember the name of anymore.

This picture was taken at it's original location, around 7-8 years ago.( only in low quality sadly )
The hanging system consists of two green clothes-hangers, and the brush at the lower left also supported the object. The brush was one of my first prototypes of my brushes collection...

Selected works IV: Red Brush 1

Dated 1998 (?):

Red Brush 1 / Recycled brush on wood by NetPierre ca.1998

I like to recycle old materials for my projects.
For example, brushes i used at work are never thrown away and i keep them all in a big bucket for re-use.

This brush was the first in a series of brushes, all standing on a wooden base and finished with an acrylic paint. Until now i made 4 of these, in different shapes and colors, and i am still planning to work on new ones.
The background painting (40x50cm, acrylic paint on canvas) is one of my many backgrounds that i use for making photos or as a background for portraits and cat paintings

Selected works III: Cat Painting I

Jakkie en Wuppie / Acrylic paint on canvas 50x40 cm. ©2006 NetPierre

The cats in this painting were my first two cats (twins), the one on top sadly passed away in 2006.
This painting was made as a tribute and based on a picture that i took a few years earlier when i found them both on top of each-other in the laundry-basket.

I hope you will keep visiting this blog, so far i am very happy with all the visits from all over the world... i will try to keep the blog interesting enough.

NetPierre's intentions for 2010 are:
- Less smoking

- Blog more frequently
- Upgrade to a new PC
- Producing a new downloadable videoshow (VODcast)
( more info on this later - it's still a secret...!)
- Producing and trying to make a huge succes of the internet-danceradioshow 'The Groove Express' for OldschoolFM

There's a lot of work to be done in 2010... but i also have to work...
The (temporary) new NetPierre.TV site is now up, just click the >VIEW VIDEO< button in the right column to take a look into the Dutch NetPierre headquarters. Starting today, and more in the coming weeks i will also post some pictures of my old artwork, pictures of my paintings and more stuff like that. Some of these works are over 15 years old already, and never really 'published' I hope you like them, feel free to leave a comment.


This time it's first object i ever made in a series of Pistaccio-art / december 2000
( made using cork (for the base), some open pistaccio's and acrylic paint )
I used this picture here on the right a lot as my desktop wallpaper.

Icey landscape


Very interesting how the surface of the ice looks after some rain.
