It has been my experience that when one draws,(studies), with the skill and understanding,(as she obviously does here), the work of "seeing it in paint" is practically done. To me, this painting would be done in darker values (shadows), allowing the objects to emerge from the darkness into the light, thus revealing their form,(as a ship emerges from the fog). I imagine it would be beautiful, as I have seen a painting of hers, and I am in awe of it! It is my opinion that Hanneke would have no problem “painting” this still-life drawing.

I am learning so much from your blog that I am tempted giving up my job to become a student of art. Hanneke,

And bang! here is a skull that she has already painted. Perhaps, I am on her wavelength. I was thinking of where to get a skull for Hanneke to paint.

As Hanneke has a so much experience in her work now she is able to make this elaborate works from imagination, and it shows clearly her unique style and ideas. In Renaissance time, artists would spend all their lives practicing painting and copying works from their Masters that they would get to a point they didn’t need models anymore, and that’s when serious interesting work was produced!
