Illusionairy space: how do I start?
Mentally I walk through the walls and I create a new space. Afterwards I take again the vieuwpoint in the real space and I project, in my mind, the created space against the walls.Only then I take pencil and paper and start the design to scale. After this, the painting can start.

hotel
2004This is the left hand wall. The figures are away and the door becomes closed. I create the effect that you walk in an area where playing is the reality. One step further on the tiles of the floor (painted) and you come into the country without gravity.
