ARTIST INFORMATION

Demiak (1967, Goudriaan, the Netherlands) is the pseudonym for Maarten Demmink. He studied at the Art Academies in Utrecht (1986-1988) and The Hague (1988-1992). He is a talented genre painter with classical skills and a great sense of modern use of material and shapes. Clouded skies are the base of his usually large canvasses. Second, he adds the intriguing visual elements that characterize his style. His smaller work is often created by mixed techniques, for instance computer prints that are transformed with oil paint.
