Apollo (Oil on Japan-paper mounted on wood panel, 72.2cm x 63.6cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)

Apollo

Can't Hear

I don’t really like to paint very large paintings(for many reasons- ‘space’ being one of them) but for my birthday I ‘treated myself to this one! It was necessary.

Amazo-Sphere (Oil on primed cotton bath towel mounted on plywood, 53.5cm x 86cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)

Amazo-Sphere

Everything in this painting is again based on the divine proportions of the “golden rectangle”. The colours, the ‘feel’ and mood are of the rainforest. And for the first time: Op-Art that is really RELAXING!

Republic Earth (My old rags mounted on plywood, 89cm x 51cm, Dirk Marwig 2015)

Republic Earth
