“For his gouache paintings, Jan Maliepaard developed his own unique gouache painting technique, using fine brushes to apply multiple semi-transparent layers on a mid-tone opaque layer. This meticulous and labour-intensive technique results in a wide range of nuances in a style reminiscent of old photos.”Typical subject in the art of Maliepaard are human emotions. With a very limited use of colour and a great sense of composition, the artist portrays these emotions in a unique way.
