"Real freedom does not exist
and yet I know I found it..." I've seen and experienced what others can only dream of. Seen men at their best and their worst. Still I shall not judge nor condemn. Every man has the right to follow their own path. On mine I came accross a brush and since it helped me explain the world. dEpAUL combines many painting technicques with acrylics on canvas or wooden panels. The most recognisable aspect about his paintings is the way emotion and bewondering is found by his excessive use of colour. dEpAuL is self-taught and finds inspirations in his own life, past and future where emotions are key. Born in 1979 in Oudenaarde, Belgium, works as a teacher in computergraphics in CVO Avelgem, is also independant. Started painting in 2012. |
"Echte vrijheid bestaat niet
en toch weet ik dat ik het gevonden heb." Ik heb gezien en ervaren waar anderen alleen maar van kunnen dromen. Mannen op hun best en op hun slechtst. Toch zal ik oordelen, noch veroordelen. Ieder mens heeft het recht zijn eigen weg te volgen. Op mijn weg kwam ik een kwast tegen en ondervond dat het me hielp de wereld te verklaren. DEpAUL combineert vele schildertechnieken met acryl op canvas of houten panelen. Het meest herkenbare aspect van zijn schilderijen is de manier waarop emotie en bewondering worden gevonden door zijn overmatig kleurgebruik. dEpAuL is autodidact en vindt inspiratie in zijn eigen leven, verleden en toekomst waar emoties centraal staan. Geboren in 1979 in Oudenaarde, België, werkt als docent computergrafiek in CVO Avelgem, is ook onafhankelijk. Begonnen met schilderen in 2012. |
"Words were not and are not enough to express the many emotions and insights I need to share with the world"
