JENS MALMGREN I create, that is my hobby.

Oostvardersdiep

For this painting I had a special idea to try out: glossy medium for the water and for the sky the original matte finish. When the light is right a couple of sparkles are reflected from the water area of the painting.

In a painting with one horizon and for the rest no perspective clues it is really important to use the atmospheric perspective by making distant parts of the painting grayish. I also worked on making the nearest parts more detailed.

I made this painting 5th of September 2010.

I was born 1967 in Stockholm, Sweden. I grew up in the small village Vågdalen in north Sweden. 1989 I moved to Umeå to study Computer Science at University of Umeå. 1995 I moved to the Netherlands where I live in Almere not far from Amsterdam.

Here on this site I let you see my creations.
