About Me
- Jason de Graaf
- My paintings are about staging an alternate reality, the illusion of verisimilitude on the painted surface, filtered so that it expresses my unique vision. Though my paintings may appear photoreal my goal is not to reproduce or document faithfully what I see one hundred percent, but also to create the illusion of depth and sense of presence not found in photographs. Many of my paintings are about the relationship of light with reflective and transparent surfaces and my journey to understand those qualities and convey my sense of wonder and intrigue over them. In all of my paintings the subject matter is a springboard and a means to explore my ability to communicate something unique to the viewer. I use colours and composition intuitively with the intent of imbuing my paintings with emotion, mood and mystery. Throughout, I try to remain open to new ideas as the painting unfolds.

So nice, Jason! I love that pink stopper thing in the decanter, and the reflections are gorgeous as always. I like the background color, too. This one has a moody, pensive quality to it.
Just WOW!!!
Great as always Jason. I actually purchased a bottle of Jack Daniels recently in order to piant it sometime in the future.....you beat me. From the title, did you take this photo syudy for the painting from your recent trip in the Netherlands?
Thank you Carol, JackDaddy & Alvin
Alvin, you're correct. These bottles were at my aunt and uncle's house in Oisterwijk, Holland. I went to visit them there before they took me out to dinner for my birthday last year.
The detail is insane Jason. Awesome piece
