Sunday Pick: Wim Oepts















Wim Oepts (1904-1988) was a dutch painter who spent time working in the south of France.  He was making these paintings in the late 1950's.  I love the convergence of a french sensibility with modernism's sense of flatness, shape and drawing.

Thank you for posting these, Aubrey. I had never heard of him but I really like him. LIke the way he has of composing, certainly, but also of a sort of emotion, like affection maybe, keeping his vision simple. The wonderful shade of blue, for example, of the building, or the casual way he sends the grassy field sort of shooting into the gray buildings.
