Busy Days

by Sander Steins on Jun 9, 2013
Everybody is busy these days… and yes, me included. I have to prepare all kind of things/events for the coming weeks, so I’ll have no time for a daily update on my blog. Cologne and Paris are coming up, as well a studio visit from a gallery. I need the time to prepare all as... read more »

Green

by Sander Steins on May 31, 2013
It’s unbelievable beautiful and green in the forests around this time of the year. All is looking fresh and nature is fully awake! This week I created 6 little pieces and used green as base. I am satisfied with the results, and I think next time I’ll have to make a large painting based around... read more »

by Sander Steins on May 28, 2013

Suspicion Tool

by Sander Steins on May 25, 2013
Facebook is a perfect tool to create suspicion. It set friendships into a new context (and sometimes under pressure) with all the tools it gives us to follow or hide each other. Facebook is a place where people meet and friendships can be easily destroyed… Suspicion Tool (100×70 cm – 36×28 inch hybrid) / ©SanderSteins... read more »

From The Forest

by Sander Steins on May 24, 2013
These are some influences and lines from the forests. For me it is always important to go back to the base once in a while.

Gold

by Sander Steins on May 23, 2013
It was a grey and cold day in my country and this Spring we don’t have much luck with the weather so far, so it was a very nice surprise that there was such a beautiful light in my studio this evening. A golden moment!

Exit (fears)

by Sander Steins on May 20, 2013
This year I feel I am at a huge cross point in my life. There is already a lot of change and progression, but I still have my moments of inner doubts, fears and weakness. I not feel ashamed for them, but I also realize that I still need to work hard on getting more... read more »

Welcome

I am an artist who works with varied media. On this site I'll share my work as artist and photographer as well my interests and opinions on several subjects.

For me it is a great opportunity to give you some more information about my artworks and concepts, but also to show you a varied overview of the things I am interested in.

Running a blog gives you a better view on my personal way of thinking and perhaps it will help you a bit more to understand my art. Enjoy it!
