And the Dutch illustrator and graphic artist Redmer Hoekstra is also a visionary. He depicts familiar creatures and the most ordinary objects in such a way that it changes our understanding of them.
At first glance, it seems that Redmer Hoekstra's works are simply comic images designed to entertain the viewer. But the actor takes his work completely seriously. His cheerful surrealism is an attempt to rediscover the nature of things that we have long stopped paying attention to.
Hoekstra describes his work as follows:
The artist’s illustrations attract the viewer not only with the unusual images, but also with excellent technical execution. Redmer Hoekstra is a true professional in his field, with a background in the Art Academy of Zwolle (ArtEZ) and years of experience as an illustrator. The master’s biography includes many exhibitions and competitions, at which he rarely went without prizes.
No less amazing paintings are created by the Polish surrealist artist Jacek Jerka.
