About this artwork
During her artist in residence period in Ireland, Monique worked in het atelier but sometimes she was sitting by the window on the first floor. From there she was looking over the garden where the many craws were very busy taking care of their baby birds. One big social community. One day the sun was shining and showed her light on the drawing of the artist. It was like a window. Monique used this situation and it made her decide the continuation…
of the drawing.
From Irish artists she heard that craws are very social and loyal animals. Craws and other birds appear regularly in Monique’s artworks.
The drawing is mounted on aluminiu with profile on the backside. Then it is mounted on painted wood and has a off-white painted wooden frame.

« For me, art is a language, a way to communicate between my inner world and what happens outside. A language that creates other probabilities. »
Monique van Stokkum is an award-winning painter from the Netherlands who has exhibited nationally as well as in Ireland and Spain. Her works concern universal human themes, which people might recognize in themselves. Van Stokkum takes photographs on her walks home and finds images that inspire her creative process, sketching out ideas before bringing them to the canvas. She uses gesso inks combined with water in her drawings, while working with oils, resins, tempera as well as beeswax in her paintings.
