I almost had an
important show in the poche Ganesha gallery of the Four Seasons hotel in 2011.
But a new general director was not so art interested and did not sponsor the
gallery anymore. So no more grand openings with a life music ensemble (Krontjong)
and a good opening speaker (Bruce Carpenter.) But I already had prepared my
paintings and how I wished them to be showed on the walls. There were 18 pastels
of only one model. The model was a 93 years old man, who is modeling for me
from 2005 till now. I can express so many moods painting this old, kind and
wise man.
You can take no credit for beauty at sixteen. But if you are beautiful at sixty, it will be your soul’s own doing.
Marie Stopes
Scottish
feminist. (1880-1958)
The name of
the model is:
I Nyoman
Regug
Born ± 1920
