✿ Herman TULP ✿

'In culla d'aria profumata
di un meriggio
t'Amo ancor di più
pari all'azzurro infinito
di questo parallelo cielo
e t'Amo
ancor di più
pari all'immensa distesa d'erba
di questa parallela terra...'

Herman Tulp was born in Zwolle in 1955 and completed his training at Academie Minerva, the academy of art in Groningen, in 1980.
Among his teachers were the renowned Dutch painters Wout Muller and DiederikKraaijpoel.Tulp developed into a painter who paid great attention to detail, and he became known for his intricate and intimate still lives.
He paints in a realistic manner, focusing on two genres: intimate still life and magic-realistic landscapes. His still life paintings radiate nostalgia, often including objects from the time of his Grandmother painted against time-weathered wood. In his magic-realistic paintings, trains or houses are painted as solitary monuments in whimsical landscapes
In recent years the female nude has played a central role in his paintings. The models he portrays radiate both strength and gentleness and are often situated in dreamy spaces.
His work is available via Galerie Wildevuur (Hooghalen) and Galerie Utrecht. A number of his paintings form part of the collections of Museum Møhlmann and the Drents Museum; others are in private collections all over the world.
