This idea for the painting  came to mind during the road trip I made with my love and my 2cv along the coast of France.  Like many of my paintings, it is a mixture of reality, dreams and memories which creates an image of an imagined reality and lets you be a part of this journey.

Oil painting in a photo realistic style. "I've always been fascinated by the work of Mondrian. Especially in his later geometric abstract work, were all natural forms were reduced to elementary colors, squares and lines.
This painting is a quest for the way back to the natural forms. The painting contains realistic elements that are arranged in a similar way as a painting by Pieter Mondrian."
