Schilderij

Welcome to the website of Mariska Pisam

Mariska Pisam finished her studies at the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague and the Academy Expressive Shaping in Amsterdam. Since then she had many expositions, takes part in art manifestations and events.
In 2010 she finished a course called de Toverboom, about communication via drawing and painting.

She paints in oil, starting with a first layer of paint, that might play a role in the final painting. Because the paint strokes and the colours are already there, the ultimate image will get an extra dimension.
That will be intensified by the fact that the artist is often playing with fore- and background, flat and round shapes.
The works are very colourful, and are in between abstraction and realism.
During some years, the human figure takes a mayor position in the works.
The paintings symbolize the eternal conflict of men to choose between mind and sentiment, balance and unbalance, distance and vicinity.

She also paints objects, where she does not have to be disturbed by the limitations of a flat surface. She also works on assignment and works in all sizes.

The studio is located in Hoofddorp, where you always can come and have a look.
