Hansa Versteeg

From the turn of the millennium Hansa (Hans Versteeg) developed rapidly. As a versatile designer his free work plays an ever-growing role, initially in the form of photography. Unexpectedly, for himself and others, Hansa made a change in 2010 to oil painting as an art form. Over a short period of time he developed into a painter with a major talent for painting fabric, similar to the masters of the 17th century such as Gerard ter Borch. Hansa, however, is inspired by the subjects in the contemporary world of the 21st century, as can be seen from his cellophane wrapped flower-still life subjects and socially relevant topics such as the refugee problem and Covid-19.
