'A farm stands before you on the horizon. A windmill majestically slices the blue sky. A bird, painted in taut brushstrokes, struts on a branch. These are tranquil images; horizon far in the distance. Jeroen Allart’s paintings are becoming more graphic in his endless search for perfection. More is less. ‘I struggled with painting for a long time. I revel in it now and I know how to transform my ideas into form and colour.’

The fact that Allart more or less breaks all the rules on the traditional artistic programme is not so strange. He has, after all, a different goal to the old masters and does not intend to have us believe that his illusion on canvas represents realistic landscapes. This is a painter who first and foremost wishes to convey to the onlooker the beauty of a fragment of Dutch landscape. To get us to look afresh at our own surroundings. He does it very well. His Dutch landscapes put us on the right track. less
