This panoramic watercolour artwork is a continuation of a series on internal human organs. Other artworks in this series include inanimate objects, but this artwork only includes facial features because it is essentially a portrait.
I have been inspired by other artists for a long time. First the impressionists, then the expressionists and later also the cubists.
I have chosen watercolour as a medium because it allows me to select pure pigments which then display as vibrant colours.
It uses the following pigments: turner’s yellow, cadmium red, cobalt turquoise, naples yellow reddish, buff titanium, graphite grey, potter’s pink, lunar black and real vermillion (cinnabar).
