Landscape art 'RUNNING AT DUSK' depicts a young boy running along the shoreline.

The beach, rendered in shades of grey, contrasts sharply with the vivid sky above. The sky is a brilliant canvas of orange, pink and red hues, signalling the end of the day.


The composition emphasizes the difference between the stillness of the beach and the dynamic movement of the boy. 


The boy, running with visible pleasure, becomes a focal point, symbolizing freedom and the boundless energy of youth.

db Waterman is a contemporary Dutch artist. In her works she assembles original photography, assorted papers, acrylics, oil, charcoal, ink, and pencil. The variety of resources she is able to use has proved indispensable to her. The biggest challenge the collage medium posed was its unforgiving lack of transparency. Finding a way to replicate the effects of transparency afforded by paint, especially watercolors, was a large victory for the artist. The preparing labor shows through in her collages; layer upon layer of material remains visible in the finished pieces. 

db Waterman believes that the body of her work is characterized by her skill for reinvention. Having always loved the appearance of weathered walls plastered with peeling paint and old posters, she revived this aesthetic with hopefully a keen and professional eye. The creative objective of her work is to “make something beautiful out of dilapidation.” Her tableaus explore the dissonance between old and new materials, intertwined in the most beautiful way possible to create dreamlike and melancholy images.
