Oil Paintings by Rob Van Hoek
Rob Van Hoek is a Dutch artist inspired by nature, in particular cultivated landscapes which reveal patterns, lines, rhythm and planes. A cultivated landscape is composed of manmade elements; mown fields, green fallow, a line of trees. All of these create a harmonious image. To capture these patterns and lines, an important part of Rob Van Hoek’s technique is to scratch, draw and rub into wet oil paint.
