There is plenty of wonderful work to look through on her website that shows an ongoing and fascinating transformation of style and intent over time. www.helenverhoeven.com
"Event Two", acrylic on canvas, 208.5 x 418 cm (82” x 164.5" inches), 2008
"Event One", acrylic on canvas, 198 x 404 cm (78” x 159" inches), 2008
Out of these large scenes she recreated many details as their own paintings....
"Event One" detail 4 (room with portrait) oil on canvas, 183 x 152.5 cm (72” x 60" inches), 2008
And here's one of the paintings in the above painting done as it's own painting. I really enjoy the multi-layered reality of all this.
"Event One – Detail 6 (Portrait with Sons)" oil on canvas, 183 x 122 cm (72” x 48" inches), 2008
Here's some context to give you an idea of scale.
And here's a couple more pieces from other series....
"Half After - 3" oil on canvas, 150 x 200 cm (59 x 78.7 inches) 2009
"Don't Do Me Any Favors" oil on canvas, 106.7 x 147.3 cm (42" x 58" inches), 2007
I'd like to credit booooooom.com with first bringing her work to my attention.
