Description: Self portrait, freed from thoughts
Story:
The winds in Groningen blew away all my thoughts.
I’m in search lately for new ways to make expressive portraits. Portraits that go beyond resemblance and also express and convey a strong emotion to the viewer.
Apart from its color palette and style the sheer physical size is an important quality of such a portrait: large images tend to have far more impact. To circumvent the limitations that digital pixel based artworks have, I’ve created this portrait as a (infinitely) scalable vector graphic. This means it can be scaled without losing its razor sharp definition.
The edition on sale here has a size of 15000 x 20000 pixels, which is ample to print in high quality - 300 dpi - on 50” x 75” (125 x 225 cm). The file size: 34 MB in JPG-format.
This portrait was created first as a painting in acryl on canvas, then digitized and converted into vector graphics. The vector graphics have been intensively processed to achieve the final result.
- 20000 x 15000 px, JPEG (33.3 MB)
- This is a signed and limited edition digital creation.

Lovely ... The free form expression really brings out the beauty yet it is so simple and fresh.
Van Gogh would be proud :) Fantastic piece of art right here
Thank you! To be compared with this famous fellow countryman makes me feel a little bit proud too...
Fantastic! Love it Bart!
Thank you Diana! I'm happy it's so well received; just yesterday I already sold the other portrait in this series!
