paintings
The works of Gonny Geurts move between two poles; the autonomic move of the painting process, based on a poem, a thougt, literature or a philosophic concept. And the other side, the consequence of communicating about the theme and how to communicate it by the foms created on the painting. The visitor himself has to do the same; make his own fantasies and interpretations

artificial leaves
2010In this painting artificial leaves are composed in a square, the format I like te work in. Also there is a bowl, als a repeating element in my work
circle of time
2010When the circle symbolises the time, and when the square symbolises our living area, then this painting is time and space for us. Many transparant layers of paint enrichened the colours of this painting
The arch
2010The Arch is s painting in which you can find more arches; to heaven? It's apossiblity which the public may know. Part of the painting is made with structure paste, part with very thin layers of paint. Blue, gold, warm colours.
golden mountains
2010A big painting 210x80 cm. Painted with big brushes in yellow, ocre, burnt sienna, silver and Indian ink. Landscape, energy, scale, warm and cosy
It's growing and building
2010Plant life and architecture in one painting. Like flowering growing out of a pillar, against a dark decor. Dark blue, yellow, green, glowing.
hestia
2010Hestia, the goddess of the house and the fire. Red and gold an Indian ink.Hermes will come soon, and if he doesn't, no problem.
ivory tower
2010Ivory tower is a very introvert painting. There is a profile to be seen, very few colours but very much nuances of silvery blue. The profile looks like a Greek oracle
Copperblue
2010Copperblue is not the colour of rusting copper. it's the colour of the sun and cloud in this painting, who need the blue parts for a balanced composition.
Limburg
2010Limburg is the district in the south of The Netherlands, where I was born. This little painting may not look like the landscape over there, but the association with an old farmhouse was so strong I had to call it this way
ransparence and material
2010Material used in this painting; pure pigments and the ocres from the mountains in the South of France. Transparancy is to be found in the many layers of watery paint, which shows the seeking of the deeper content of this painting
nymphea
2010Nymphea, is based on the contrast between the colours red and green. The open space was important for the composition. An associated thought of a waterlily encouraged the definition of the painting
persephones child
2010Two children with curls in an architectorial environment. Rounded by a friesof Indian inkt drawings
spiral
2010A spiral ending in a human figure. Hue blue and goldish yellow. Frozen movement.
