PA van Wigcheren, art critic for the Nieuwe Noord-Hollandse Courant, wrote the following about the artist Bob Immink:
A passionate artist who, in his work—painting, watercoloring, silkscreen printing, and collage—attempts to reduce the landscape to its essence. I've called Immink a master of omission, indicating that he eliminates all sorts of details in his work and depicts only the essentials in bold planes, without losing the recognizability of the landscapes he captures.
All of the artist's works radiate a powerful drive. Often very sparse in color, then reduced to the bare essentials, yet sometimes also quite explosive, without ever becoming overbearing or harsh. Sensitive and driven is the best way to describe Immink's work; produced with a high degree of craftsmanship.
Opinion Gerard Ekelenkamp:
"When I saw Bob Immink's work, I was overwhelmed by the stunning simplicity of the compositions, a simplicity that, in my experience, simultaneously creates a beautiful, stylized representation of reality."
