It's November times flies away, the past year has flown. I'm busy organizing my final show. Mid-December I'll move back to Amsterdam.
After the intense heat and my falling in love, I notice that I painted intense and well, I made 48 paintings. The series, I called Incanto, because this canvas, Incanto (43 years), has a central role.
Here in Montevettolini I rediscovered my heart, I have seen what is all for me about in life. painting is life and life is painting. A conclusion which is almost too simple for words but very true.
I want to make a final presentation and everyone is welcome. In each room I hung paintings. So I have three exhibition halls: the living room, studio and gallery space on the first floor.
The opening was very successful due to many visitors, and the good reactions. The inauguration of this series was made by the village priest: Donal bert Bodino.
Here in this medieval village I have experienced intensievely the value of the life and I'm also very warm received. I so want to thank everyone who has helped me and who has made this project possible. My photos tell the rest. I will miss Montevettolini but certainly I will come back! I am going to continue to pack up, because December 20th is the opening in St. Moritz (CH) and then in Amsterdam half January . Incanto goes on tour, and thanks to my love and muse Cor I ameven though in the possession of the Incanto tour t-shirt. Have fun viewing the picts, I quickly address because I have enough to do!
