Painter, Belgian, born 1927

The image shows swirling and curving lines intersecting and overlapping to form intricate network of shapes. It features bold strokes of deep blue, vibrant pink, hints of green and yellow creating a layered, textured appearance. There are suggestions of familiar objects like a seashell or a face. The combination of colors and shapes creates a dynamic dance, where forms emerge and recede into the abstract background.
