Ton Boudewijn: his language of painting

Ton Boudewijn is an artist with a long career; classic guitar player, sculptor and painter, he invades his canvases with the motion and the strength of each one of his inspirations. His artworks, painted on big canvas, are of strong effect with his brushstrokes being blunt and the texture more defined.

Ton’s painting is abstract, expressionist, active, musical; so fluent to seem overflowing the canvas.

Wassily Kandinsky once said that “a parallel between color and music can only be relative – just as a violin can give warm shades of tone, so yellow has shades, which can be expressed by various instruments.” Alike, Contemporary painter Ton Boudewijn follows the tradition of Abstract Expressionism with his moving oeuvre of exquisite, musical paintings.
