Artist Statement:
Egidius Knops
1945 in Simpelveld NL. Geboren
Starting from natural forms and structures in nature, I approach the forms of nature in painting with graphic lines. What drove me again and again into the forests and parks was the changing daylight and daylight filtered through the green of the leaves and steered through the trunks and branches through the treetops and colored pictures on the forest floor. Impressionist landscapes are created In particular Cézanne and Monet as well as the realist Gustav Courbet who loved the light, have inspired me to these pictures
