It is hard to say what inspired me. I just started to paint. I had a title in mind: Terra Incognita, unknown territory. And like many of my paintings, I should say "There was a hand that led me". Or at least: a feeling, a strange inspiration. And then, as if by itself, a kind of green hilly landscape and sky (perhaps) emerged. Only that sky was orange (which reminded me of the words from the Chinese poet Bei Dao "I don't believe the sky is blue"). And I don't know why, but at some point, I was painting an egg in that orange sky, so I thought giving that egg wings would be helpful. For that, I used two found feathers of a great tit. I hope this painting helps you dream of an unknown land where everything is possible.

JW Rijneveldshoek is a professional multidisciplinary artist (painter, fine art photographer & writer) from Rotterdam (Netherlands). At the moment he lives at Heemstede, close to Amsterdam. JW on his paintings: 'I'd been making art through photo editing – a.k.a. fine art photography – for years (see www.rhynoart.com). In 2018, I started painting again. I am and always will be a storyteller. Even as a painter. I work without sketches beforehand. I start with a title and I write it down. That title awakens a certain feeling in me. So I sit down in front of the empty canvas and let that feeling sink in until I know which movement and color to start with. Then I start to paint. I paint without brushes. I apply the paint to the canvas with my hands and fingers to reinforce the intuitive process. As soon as I no longer know how to proceed, I sit down in front of the canvas again. And I wait until I feel how to proceed. With which movement, with which color, with which technique. This is how my paintings arise from that one title. JW: 'My last name is quite complicated for people who don't speak Dutch. But, for those who speak English, it sounds like "Rhine felt hook", which is a little poem in itself.' ;-)
