Aqua_211 is an abstract drawing combing ink and fineliners. Inspired by satellite imagery, it contrasts organic, flowing shapes depicting water with strong linework. The latter depicts the influence of humans on natural landscapes. The organic shapes on closer inspection show a large amount of detail, not unsimilar to taking a closer look at nature itself. As such, the artwork can be perceived at different levels of detail - further away, the observer can perceive the overall composition with more abstract shapes, up close the details take over the observation.

Ernst Kruijff is a contemporary Dutch artist. His artworks combine and contrast many design concepts and creative materials, drawing inspiration from Nordic and Japanese design. To create a synthesis between painting and drawing techniques, he combines sumi-e ink, acrylic paint, acrylic paint markers, and fine liners.

The artist compares the clarity and nearly technical aspect of drawing and graphic design to the fluidity and vibrancy of painting. This combination is not only visible in the contrast between styles, but also the compositions of the many pictorial elements, from organic shapes to basic geometric and architectural aspects.

Ernst Kruijff’s artworks can be found in Europe, USA and Canada in private collections and corporate buildings.
