Watch this incredible movie of Theo Jansen. A Dutch artist (or scientist?) who makes wonderful creations.

Yes, I did it!
A group- exhibition in the Hague, in “Het Haags Gemeentemuseum”.
The jury choose one of my drawings. This is really an important step!
Today the exhibition in Harlingen (the Netherlands) started.
OMG. Tomorrow I am going to Groningen. In Groningen there is a sort of contest going on.
If you make it through the balloting (I am afraid this is very bad English, although I think I do a better job than Louis van Gaal at Manchester United in the UK) you are allowed to join a group-exhibition in “Het Gemeentemuseum of The Hague”. This museum is highly regarded, here in the Netherlands.
Just today I saw this movie. The “line-up” of last year. Very, very, long rows of people. A lot of so called artists, trying to get a piece of the cake.
I will join this contest with these four works. Wish me luck (I am on my own tomorrow, so how on earth will I manage to show my four works of art to the jury?). I can’t bail out. I’ve paid 120 euro’s for this. What have I done, what have I done?
I nice thing about having a blog, is that it gives you the change, to look back at all the art you’ve made in the past.
I found this image on my computer. A painting I made a few years ago.
Oil on canvas, 120 x 150 cm.
Some new drawings, sketches.
In the Nordic and Greek Mythology, Gaia was the great mother of all: the primal Greek Mother Goddess; creator and giver of birth to the Earth and all the Universe.
I don’t know yet how, but I am investigating how to implant this theme into my work, into my art. So these sketches are part of my research.
Framed some drawings, for the upcoming exhibitions
I was not present at the time, but I think these drawings where made approximately one hour after Charles Darwin published his book “On the origin of species”, in 1859.
By the way, these drawings are for sale. If you do buy them, I will donate the money to charity: “SAVE THE DINOSAUR”.
Promise.
Drawings, chalk on paper, 50 x 65 cm.
This little also at the exhibition in Harlingen (start: 17th of april).
