Ada Breedveld - Surrealistic etching - Sold

Ada Breedveld (1944) regards life as her learning school. She wanted to become an artist from an early age and did not attend an academy or course. Breedveld has taught herself the trade and regards life as her school. From an early age she drew whenever she could, which has brought her a successful career. Working from her studio in Amsterdam, on Prinseneiland, she brings her art into the world. A colorful collection of works of art, including paintings, etchings and bronze statues. Ada Breedveld started exhibiting in the 1970s. Surrealism fascinated her, an art direction in which not visible reality, but the fantasy from our deepest inner self should be the starting point for art. She gradually found her own typical style and theme: the imposing and present Woman. That woman, colorful, dancing, with glass in hand and birds around her in the air, is the ultimate bon vivant. This woman is the central point in many of her works of art and it makes Breedveld's art very recognizable. Her works of art show something unreal, a dream, full of feeling and experience. She says: 'I have been painting all my life. The brush is an extension of my emotional life. This allows me to express myself in the most optimal way. The material gives me the challenge to create a world that creates the illusion of reality. A reality that does not really exist, but is experienced as such. As in a dream, the unreal is experienced as real.
