This oil painting is an interpretation of American architect Frank Lloyd Wright's famous villa. The 1935 house is located in the Laurel Highlands in southwestern Pennsylvania. It is partly built over a waterfall. The house was designed as a weekend retreat for Liliane and Edgar J. Kaufmann, the owners of the Kaufmann department store in Pittsburgh.
Upon its completion, Time called Fallingwater Wright's "most beautiful work" and it is included in Smithsonian's "Life List of 28 Places to See Before You Die." The house was designated a National Historic Landmark on May 11, 1976. In 1991, members of the American Institute of Architects called Fallingwater the "greatest work of American architecture of all time."
The house and seven other Wright structures were inscribed as a World Heritage Site in 2019.

I was born in Voorburg (Netherlands) and live in Rotterdam. My interest in drawing and painting started at secondary school in Tilburg. Spatial mathematics (stereometry) really appealed to me. I also took drawing lessons there from a well-known painter, Jan Asselbergs. He thought I should go to art school, but because of the poor job market prospects I didn't do that at the time. I actually wanted to become an architect myself, but I worked as a lawyer. Nevertheless, my interest in (spatial) drawing and painting remained and I have picked up that thread again carefully, in addition to my work. I took painting lessons at the Stichting Kunstzinnige Vorming in Rotterdam (SKVR) in acrylic, watercolor and oil painting. Later I started specializing in oil painting. In line with my previous interest in architecture, I focused on industrial and cultural heritage. An inexhaustible theme.

In my work I have been influenced by artists such as Pieter Saenredam, M.C. Esscher and Hopper and the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright, among others.
I have been making my oil paintings since 2013 in my studio at Vest 69 in Gouda. The source of inspiration for my paintings are abandoned and often dilapidated industrial buildings, which I usually capture just before demolition or renovation through sketches and photos. In addition to industrial heritage, I also paint cultural heritage: well-maintained or restored buildings with a cultural value.
I want to make my paintings a special experience through the use of color and light. Dark desolation has to make way for light and warmth. I regularly add characters to the heritage that give the image a different or extra meaning. Some paintings contain a "hidden message" or a reference to current events.
