SIMON BORST, DUTCH PLEIN AIR PAINTER, NATURE IS MY STUDIO. FROM
1994 I WORKED SPATIALLY, SCULPTING AND MODELING IN AMSTERDAM.
SINCE 1997 I FOCUSED ON DRAWING AND PAINTING. GRADUALLY PLEIN
AIR PAINTING DEVELLOPED. YOU CAN SEE ME AS AN AUTODIDACT IN THE
TRADITION OF THE IMPRESSIONISTS. I FEEL GOOD IN NATURE. ELEMENTS
SUCH AS LIGHT - STRUCTURES AND SPATIAL OBJECTS INSPIRE ME.
THE STYLE IS FIGURATIVE IN A LIGHT-ABSTRACT WAY. WITH GREAT
COURAGE AND SENSE OF CRAFT I TRY TO ADD SOMETHING NEW. I AM
INVOLVED IN ORGANISING PROJECT AROUND THE WORLD. THROUGH MY
ART I LIKE TO BE CONNECTED WITH THE WORLD AROUND ME.
