Philosophical thoughts on making art by Dutch artist Titus Meeuws and guests.

  1. 7. Feb.

    28 I want to paint what I see (not what's truly there).

    Two paintings this week. A large one showing the government buildings in watercolor and gouache. And a commission showing a window in a church. The colored light shimmers through the window and reflects colors on the floor. Creating art is showing what you see, not what's in front of you. I play with wet in wet washes, finding balance with sharp traces and contours. Watch this episode on youtube. titusmeeuws.com

    27 The subject doesn't matter. It's about capturing its essence in the painting.

    I tell you how I like this weeks painting subjects. After working in quite smaller sizes I'm longing for a larger size and I continue on a Marching Band painting. I'm using watercolor, gouache, soft pastel, oil pastel and gold leaf. Watch this episode on youtube. titusmeeuws.com

    26 Keeping it simple

    I bought a new table easel and I start a watercolorpainting of the most impressive monument of our town. I like these statues, they bring drama in the painting. The composition is quite simple; I couldn't find more time to work this week and I used a picture which I shot from my car while I was waiting in a traffic jam.

    25 Painting from sketches | Further from reality closer to the truth

    This week I started working from my sketches in stead of my photos. Since a long time I was not sure if I was able to do this. I was tended to hold on the pictures, because these are supposed closer to reality. But while I'm working from my sketches I discover that I get closer to my truth.

    24 Listening or obeying

    When I think back to my time at the academy, I realize the difference between listening and obeying was crucial. In this week's video, I reflect aloud on the value of listening and the freedom to make your own choices. Watch this episode on youtube. titusmeeuws.com

    23 "When you use your obsession you're an artist"

    I'm obsessed by painting and drawing horses these days. I have images in my head of parades with many horses and riders in blue uniforms. In this video you see me sketching in watercolor some compositions for larger paintings I want to make. I'm using gouache and gold as well. Watch this episode on youtube. titusmeeuws.com

    22 Preparing a special exhibition

    I'm having 4 upcoming shows next month. One of these exhibitions is quite special; I will show my paintings next to Floris Arntzenius (1864 - 1925), a painter I've admired since my childhood. This week I'm working on a scene of a street which ahs been painted many times by Arntzenius. Watch this episode on youtube titus meeuws.com

    21 I didn't know what I was looking at

    When a painting subject turns out to be very complicated, but still attracs me, it is because its abstract character. I like to approach complicated subjects abstractly. They lose their function in reality and reveal their beauty in the painting. Watch the video on youtube instagram facebook titusmeeuws.com
