People in da street


I find a difficult to draw people in the street, for one they always seem to be in motion, even when sitting down they never stop moving around....secondly when they catch on what you are doing they have the nasty habit of coming over for a look-sse with the necessary verbal improvements...still it is a challenge during my long afternoon strolls through the Amsterdam city centre

Painting a drunk in the park

Polish homeless man in Westerpark/Amsterdam drinking a beer. I was drawn to the whoopie look in his eyes, I guess he had been drinking some time already despite the early hour...acrylic paint on wood, 50 cm by 40 cm

Painting a drunk in the Amsterdam streets

The Amsterdam city centre, and especially the old quarter De Jordaan, is full with mostly eastern european, polish, drunks hanging around with cheap supermarket alu cans of beer and leaving their garbage around...acrylic paint on newspaper pages glued to wood, 75 cm by 45 cm
