Original artwork description:

The light at the skyline is accenting the red roofs behind the dike and the golden colours of the flower field in my polder in Zeeland. (there where I live)

A polder is a low-lying tract of land that forms an artificial hydrological entity, enclosed by embankments known as dikes.

Every moment is different, every moment is new.
The famous Zeelandic light is always playing a great role, the sea is reflecting it.

"Amazing how one tiny splash of red makes the whole sky more intense.
Your low horizon lines are so dramatic and so very Dutch". (D.H.)
"You do great Tranguility Nelly, better than yoga to have one of your calming pictures on the wall". (Fr.M.)

"The landscapes of Van Nieuwenhuijzen are extensive, born from an intense experience of the openness of the Zeeland area. An undertone of mysticism is unmistakable. As if caught in line and color movement continues in the invisible behind the horizon. The accentuated line is both the boundary and the window. The subtle differences in rhythm and nuances reflect a range of emotions.”
