Categories Paintings under $5,000 Figurative Male Nudes

A circular painting (tondo) of a seated male nude. He is sitting in profile, facing to the right. His knees are raised, his arms are crossed and they are resting on his knees. The red-haired man has his head slightly bent downwards in a reflective pose. He is siting on an abstract ledge of dark red. The background of the picture is composed of color blocs in shades of green, yellow, orange, dark red and gold. After seeing an exhibition titled ‘Golden boy Gustav Klimt’, the name ‘Golden boy' just stuck into my head. I really enjoyed seeing all those colorful paintings and I just had to give it my own spin, using a male nude. The background colors of this artwork were inspired by one of my holiday photo’s.
Please note that the photograph used to display the sides of the painting was taken when the varnish was still wet and very shining. As you can see in the other pictures, after drying there is less surface reflection.

Danielle Hameleers is a contemporary Dutch painter. Operating within the figurative/realist style, she utilizes models, placing them against a diverse array of backgrounds, including some abstract settings. This approach allows her to indulge in her deep appreciation for the human form, often juxtaposed with landscapes, seascapes, flowers, or vibrant color compositions.

Self-taught in the realm of painting, Danielle's academic background led her to study chemistry, earn a PhD, and engage in innovation management. It was during a sabbatical that she ventured into the world of art, taking sculpture lessons and rediscovering her passion for drawing. This pivotal moment marked a transformative shift in her life.

Through the exploration of drawing, painting, and sculpting from life models, Danielle honed her skills and deepened her understanding of human anatomy. Among various artistic mediums, she ultimately chose oil paints for their luminous and beautiful colors. Her artistic focus centers on portraying the human form against vibrant and expressive backgrounds, a testament to her love for capturing the essence of her subjects.

Inspiration for Danielle's paintings stems from a variety of sources, ranging from daily observations to classical mythology. Her diverse experiences, from a background in chemistry to a sabbatical pursuit of the arts, have contributed to the unique blend of technique and subject matter evident in her captivating and evocative oil paintings.
