Early Sunday Morning is one of Edward Hopper’s most iconic paintings. The painting portrays the small businesses and shops of Seventh Avenue in New York City shortly after sunrise. It shows a blue sky over a long, red building. A barber pole sits in front of one of the doorways and there's not a human soul in sight.

The long, early morning shadows and the succession of verticals and horizontals, create the charged, almost theatrical, atmosphere of an unpopulated street at the beginning of the day. I'm sure a crowd will appear soon, but for now all is quiet and peaceful.

All the best, Gerard

On Vermeer's Milkmaid we are presented with a working environment featuring rough walls, roughly textured bread, bare wood, coarse baskets, and a maid with blunt features, rough hands and forearms.

But she is diligently focused on the task making an appetizing dish for the household. The only movement and sound being the flow of milk into the bowl.

It seems to be Vermeer's way of paying tribute to the virtues of temperance, purity and hard work. And to me that makes the painting radiate this quiet calm as I'm sure it does to my figure as well.

All the best, Gerard

I only recently discovered that the old way to follow my blog was hopelessly out of date and basically went bust. Fortunately I found a new way through Follow.it. So everyone who subscribed is finally getting updates again. I'm very pleased about that!

Kiss is a commissioned painting I did for a very happy collector from Miami.

All the best, Gerard

The window became one of Hopper’s most enduring symbols, and he exploited its potential to depict the exterior and interior of a building simultaneously.

The public and private spaces in a city where all aspects of everyday life—from goods in a storefront display to unguarded moments in an office—are equally exposed.

The animation of urban life is suspended for a brief moment, haste and unrest come to a standstill for us to finally observe quietly.

All the best, Gerard

This Wednesday 60 years will have passed since the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

Not long after the assassination Andy Warhol made a series of dramatic paintings in which he depicted Jackie Kennedy in the moments right before and after the event.
