'Inner view'

This artwork is all about the perfect imperfection. Elaine overlaps colours, figures and creates real depths, peace and chaos in the faces, to give de viewer the time to find out what was going on in her mind and soul at that time. It is a reflection of hope. With a powerful self-image, just like a imperfect -perfect face of a Picasso, everyone should look at themselves that way.

"Inner view" is a visual journey inward, into the hidden landscapes of emotion, thought, and growth. With powerful eyes that confront and invite, this artwork captures the tension between chaos and clarity, between self-reflection and transformation. The expressive brushstrokes and layered textures reflect the complexity of the inner world, ever-changing, yet rooted in strength.

Elaine van der Made paints not what is seen, but what is felt deep within. This piece invites the viewer to slow down, to turn their gaze inward, and to recognize that true beauty arises from self-awareness, resilience, and the courage to evolve.

Urban abstract realism meets emotional expressionism, raw, graceful, and honest.
This painting is a mirror of self-discovery, where every colour speaks of your personal story.

"Inner view" is een visuele reis naar binnen, naar het verborgen landschap van emotie, gedachte en groei. De krachtige blik confronteert én nodigt uit. Dit schilderij vangt de spanning tussen chaos en helderheid, tussen zelfreflectie en transformatie. De expressieve penseelstreken en gelaagde structuren weerspiegelen de gelaagdheid van onze innerlijke wereld, altijd in beweging, maar diepgeworteld in kracht.

Elaine van der Made schildert niet wat je ziet, maar wat je diep vanbinnen voelt. Dit werk nodigt uit om stil te staan, om naar binnen te kijken, en om te beseffen dat ware schoonheid ontstaat uit zelfkennis, veerkracht en de moed om te groeien.

Urban abstract realisme ontmoet emotionele expressionisme,  rauw, gracieus en oprecht.
Dit schilderij is een spiegel van zelfontdekking, waarin elke kleur jouw persoonlijke verhaal vertelt.
