The central theme in Dick van Dijk's 
work is the human figure. Dick mainly 
works in oil paint. He finds his images 
in photography or in the media as a 
reason or motive. Through painterly 
discoveries during the work process, 
he lets this go and creates a layered
reality. Although a specific photo is 
the starting point, Dick releases the 
photo as soon as possible. He cuts 
and pastes an image in his head and 
directly onto the canvas. He 
(re)searches light, surface and texture 
and tries things out. Playing with color, 
he brings new variables into the 
picture. His choices are about desire, 
intimacy and freedom.
