Phillipe de Kraan describes himself as an impressionist and expressionist. From Brush & Ink Realism to Extreme Colour he’s always conveying the Art of Creating a character study in every shape and form, even some with no detail.

Controversial, yet intriguing, an enigma to many insisting his diverse art works speak a unique language of their own to anyone with insight to appreciate them on their own merit and individuality. His sought after character studies in brush and ink have always been a conversation piece, simply because they are unique and the arduous journey to produce them is obvious to all. Rembrandt and Van Gogh have always inspired him to find his inner-hidden self, as they did.
