Nico Vrielink, 1958 | Figurative painter

 Self portrait

" Divided portrait: on the top me and under my youngest son , Jerome . Oil on canvas . 80 by 100 cm."

" The fish " . Oil on canvas. 100 by 200 cm. Yes, its big….

Her name is Jeane Seah and for decades she has been the love of his life, his source of inspiration, his companion, shining light, lover, wife and guide. Throughout the years Vrielink, a great natural talent, has proved his ability in one-subject paintings, with and through Jeane.

He would not have wanted it any other way. His themes are inspired by the rock-solid impact of her immense spiritual strength.

"Choices Between East And West 2005 25x39"

Over the past decades Vrielink and his Jeane have explored the world thoroughly and lived in many different places, from appartments, farms, villa's till casttles. From The Netherlands, Belgium, France till Indonesia.

His restless nature easily becomes enthusiastic, and his enthusiasm has to be indulged, preferably immediatly. So there is frequent packing to be done. At present the couple and their two sons, Léon and Jérôme, are living in Bali. And all these places had their influences on his work.

Far from limiting himself to The Netherlands, where he was born in 1958, Vrielink regards the world as his working territory. Art travels easy.

He exhibits his work with the same enthusiasm spontaneity whether it is in a Dutch country village, New York or Jakarta. His paintings touch some universal heartstring, and over the years this has given great international recognition and world fame.

Over the past years there has been a great deal of media attention for the artist Vrielink. Countless newspapers, magazines, books and tv documentaries have given him and his work extensive coverage worldwide.

He had with his paintings over 500 exhibitions and made over 5000 paintings of his wife.

In recent years the work is not only consisting of portraits of his wife, but also of their sons, animals, and handling theme's about good and evil, the balance within us.

With titles as "Rediscoverey of virtue", "Two wise men, the fool, the lady in distress", "Controversial issue", "Breakfast as usual", "Midlife crisis", we see a different Nico Vrielink. Deeper and intenser. And he even goes into politics withe the serie "If you look well, you even can see the Mont Blanc".

With a portrait like "Jeane,as she develloped" we see an endless dreamer. Everything is loose from reality and leeds it's own life, only to form itself into a new dimension.

IMAGE OF THE DAY

“Becoming” by Steven DaLuz

                                                            “Becoming” by Steven DaLuz

"The American focus on the sublime continues within work by Steven DaLuz, a great artist from San Antonio, Texas, whose work is firmly in the tradition, yet lifted off from its foundations in the American landscape into an imagined, golden world, in which angelic figures rise from tumultuous seas of gold and chemical patinas. His work is transcendent, rich, and dramatic, and absolutely American.

And if the inauguration of museums is indicative of cultural shifts, then the arrival of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in Los Angeles flags the 21st-century cultural turn toward art for aspirational bourgeois Americans rather than art for an elite baptized by an unholy avant-garde priesthood preaching a political gospel. George Lucas needs no introduction as the iconic creator of the legendary Star Wars series of movies that has provided America with its own great mythical narrative — an allegorical saga equal to the British Lord of the Rings, or the Mahabharata, or “Monkey King,” or the Iliad. The museum’s collection includes examples from American giants in the history of narrative art, including paintings by Bellows, Benton, Dixon, Homer, and Remington. Illustrators, for a century unjustly separated from fine art by the avant-gardists, are returned to the fold, with paintings by Rockwell, Parrish, and Leyendecker offering foundational background to more recent fantasy art by Frazetta, and of course the artwork of Star Wars in concept paintings and set and prop designs.

What are the characteristics of American revolutionary art? Traditional but evolving skill-based technique; connoisseurship; attention to detail; narrative; sentiment; a moral message. These characteristics are found in the paintings and sculptures of the flourishing 21st-century representational art movement.
