Paul Bastiaan Mullaart
Mullaart's paintings in oil and acrylic paint on canvas are reminiscent of predecessors such as Jackson Pollock and the abstract work of Karel Appel. With various tools and materials, action paint-like techniques are alternated with subtlety and extreme control. By building up his paintings layer by layer, a new space is created in the 2-dimensional plane. That's what Mullaart is looking for; a new space created by him. In addition to Mullaart's paintings, photography broadens his oeuvre. In the past he worked as a journalistic photographer. Now he uses the camera in his search for colors and structures and is involved in portrait and studio photography.
Paul's work is characterized by abstraction and a very free way of working with materials. As an autodidact he has sought his own learning path. He works on his feeling and a certain emotion, supported by technique. Through a lot of experimentation he has developed a number of his own techniques each with its own atmosphere.
