Sijtse Keur
Sijtse Keur was born and raised in Amsterdam. Sijtse Keur has been painting three days a week since 2005. Before that he had 'never put a stroke on paper'. He learned a lot in a short time, painted an entire oeuvre and had various exhibitions. 'I paint because I like it and it fascinates me, it comes from my heart.' His paintings have something of a patchwork, they are all pieces with different colors and subjects that are 'treated' in different ways; sometimes with textured paint, sometimes by scratching it with the back of a brush or drawing over it with oil pastel. Keur: 'then it comes to the foreground, I think that's nice, then it does something. I want people to be happy with my paintings. I used to make more dark paintings, now they are light.'
