Aartje van Leeuwen

Leaves, flowers and landscapes are important incentives for Arja
Painted layer upon layer the oil paint shapes a new reality
during the working process

Deep rich colours and wrought structures characterize  her work;
As a result of perpetually exploring and moving shapes; painting and eliminating the paintings that emerge radiate strength from an inner glow  

The final outcome gives the distinct impression that the paintings
can only look precisely the way they look.
Pictures you can watch endlessly and where a new reality lies
hidden under every layer: ready to be explored

By such a strikingly dynamic use of the language of form and colour in
the paintings Arja revives the classical medium of oil painting
