About Egidius Heerkens

I focus on outdoor (plein air) landscape paintings to reflect the sparkle and mood of light of a landscape scenery onto canvas in a contemporary, abstracted impressionist style. I consider myself mainly self taugh and have been drawing, painting and etching since my early teens but followed various art courses during college. I believe in using the best archival art materials and mulling my own oil paints using proven light fast pigments to fine tune harmony and lasting color virbancy.

My work has been acquired by various private collectors across the globe. In addition, I am sure that someone who purchases my paintings, continues to have as much joy from it, as I had when I was creating the piece.
