Windmills...



It looks like Neederland but, in fact, it's a landscape from the "Astra" Open Air Museum ( the largest open air Museum in Europe) near Sibiu, Romania. As a child and a teen ager I've spent a lot of time around and still have some pictures of it... When I get nostalgic, I take a photo and I paint... When I'm sad, when I'm happy, when I'm bored... well, I do the same thing... I paint...

This is a 8 x 10 inches canvas, painted in acrylics, and it's yours for Ca$ 95 ...

I remeber! I've bought a similar landscape from you about 5-6 years ago! I've like it because it was like in my native Holland! I still have it in my living room... But this is even better. I'll contact you on the private email.

Yes, Mrs. van Djik, I remember. I hope you still got my email (didn't change).

Darga Danu,
Veronica Van Djik a spus un lucru corect. Intre Van Gogh si peisajele tale exista niste asemanari, dar si o deosebire esentiala. La el compozitia curgea in tuse concentrice. incarcate de o tensiune a celui invatat sa strige tacut. La tine, cercurile sunt oarecum liniare, ca si cum ai desface lumea astfel incat sa o poti impacheta ordonat in culorile vii ale reamasitelor verii.
Mai vb.

I never know when you are serious and when you joke, Alfred... for me it is not scary, but as I've said already you can see some really scary stuff I did ar Deviant Art, for instance (as Ion Danu)...
