Roel Wielheesen

Welcome to the abstract world of Roel Wielheesen (born 1959). Get lost in shapes and lines. Discover the effect of colours, rhythm and structures. Experience the work through the many layers, creating an interesting depth.

After years of figurative work, at a certain moment I switched to abstract work. This way of working gives me a lot of freedom and satisfaction. I often work intuitively. After having applied the first random lines/areas, I continue by applying many layers. This gives the work depth. Coincidence is also an interesting factor. Shapes and structures arise as if by themselves. Fascinated by imperfect, lived-through and damaged surfaces, for me it is a search for form, structure, ambience, material and balance in my work. I work mainly with acrylic and mixed media techniques on paper and canvas.
