The smell of oil paint, beautiful colors, brushes, and a blank canvas. Then I step into my own world and paint a landscape or a cityscape that makes me happy. I am Kees Oosting, a visual artist at heart. A dreamer who, in sometimes difficult times, wants to escape into a differently colored world. In my paintings, you can wonderfully fantasize about a world where you can pause for a moment in the scent of the landscape or the beauty of our past. The silence and peace are almost tangible in my paintings. Inspired by Umbria, my second home, I want to create a world where you don't have to do anything for a while. A place where you can dream away from a world of speed and obligation.
Series "Ancient Future"
In my new series of paintings, I take it a step further. The series is called ‘Ancient Future,’ and in it, I fantasize about what the world might look like in 500 years, and whether we will still encounter our past. What will be humanity's role in this future? I am increasingly aware that, as humans, we are just a nano-second in the history of the Earth. We think we are in charge of the planet, but nothing could be further from the truth. I am convinced that the Earth will survive, but the question remains: what role will we as humans play in that?
