Quotes

  • Heavenly wonderfully beautiful that Wolfhezerland with its stream and pines.. (translation from original Dutch, Fons Heijnsbroek, 2018)
  • I've got a special liking for stables. I find them so very suitable for creating an artistique feeling, and then those stables from Oosterbeek! (translation from original Dutch, Fons Heijnsbroek, 2018)
  • As far as my work concerned, I am busy with a few small paintings, one is ordered and the other I have to 'adventure'. More and more I feel that I am short of so many studies, if I had the money, I didn't make any painting next year, I would only study [sketches]; but well, you have to make the best of a bad job, it will be hard enough to enable myself a living. (translation from original Dutch, Fons Heijnsbroek, 2018)
  • How are you doing, make a good, simple [and] true thing, for example.. .I believe I have found a good place for it. Namely, I spoke Mr. about you and he expressed his wish that you should show him something good.. (translation from original Dutch, Fons Heijnsbroek, 2018)
  • Nowadays I make ugly things, but I think they are nevertheless better than before, more made out-of-me myself, just simple cows with air and greenishness. (translation from original Dutch, Fons Heijnsbroek, 2018)
  • I really want to talk to you a lot, but what do I have to do? I still have things in progress here, two paintings and [I] must necessarily study sheep. (translation from original Dutch, Fons Heijnsbroek, 2018)
