DETAILS AND BIOGRAPHY JOSVANRISWICK
Josvanriswick paints in a realistic manner, but tries to suggest as much detail as possible without painting explicitly.
This is achieved by adding structure to the paint with a palette knife. In this technique he has been influenced strongly by Rembrandt. What fascinates him is the study of all visual elements (structure, shade, high lights, reflections) from which our brain reconstructs an almost tangible three dimensional world in our imagination.
Jos Van Riswick, a modern Dutch artist, painted a still life painting, in which lemons and a purple napkin are delicately and beautifully depicted (see Fig. 1).The painter can use these elements to create his own world and to take along the viewer into this world
The passion for painting developed in Jos van Riswick quite late in his life. Jos graduated as a physicist and worked at the university for a number of years.
Science however turned out not to be his true calling and he decided to make the switch from science to art.
