IAH No.4 — Tynje, (Friesland, Netherlands)

This is a large gentleman’s farm surrounded by fields and canals in the northern province of the Netherlands. There was a pyramidal barn which I converted into a studio on the first floor and living quarters on the ground floor.

Number of works were produced here:

Polyptych no. 2 I painted it in a large pyramidal barn attached to a gentleman’s farm in Friesland in the north of the Netherlands. The barn measured 11x11x11m, had the shape of a Maya temple, and was a perfect place for this new polyptych Great Winter landscape (3x4.6m) consisting of 6 panels (1.5x1m, 4 in-between panels (300x40cm).

The light and the colors of winter time were used to do so: it was a winter with frozen rivers and lakes, and ice-skating.
