Original artwork description:

Living in a Dutch polder, I'm fascinated by the perpetual changing moments of the light.

Red roofs of a farm, golden rapeseedfields and an enormous sky.

"I could feel the sky. The movement. The pressure. The unimaginable
expanse!
I love how the sky is nearly everything.
The things on earth minimized."

"Amazing how one tiny splash of red makes the whole sky more intense. Your low horizon lines are so dramatic and so very Dutch"


"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.”
