Menno is a truly gifted painter, who graduated in 2022 at KABK the Hague. He works figurative as well as abstract. His style of painting can vary from realistic (almost photographic) to impressionistic, sometimes even using these two styles in one painting as we can see in his work 'Papa and Messi'. His work is powerfull, using vibrant colours and subjects that are taken from daily life.

Artist's statement
'In my work, you can often find autobiographical stories or complete abstraction. Besides the subject matter, my work aims to focus on the formal qualities of painting. The communication between the different energies in one canvas, one being transparent, another opaque, another very sharp, and another out of focus, are ingredients to conduct the viewer’s eye and extend the viewing time.
