In 2006, I entered the “Inspired by Rembrandt competition, conducted by Radio Netherlands. I had only just begun to really paint. I attended a Painting for Beginners Class, at Hazelhurst Art and Community Centre. Not so much to take part in the lessons but to obtain advise from the teacher. It worked out very well. / The competition motivated me too. I used a photograph, taken of me, in front of the entrance to the town-hall of Gouda for the self-portrait. / I highlighted the ‘lamp’ above my head, to make a connection with the way Rembrandt used light to in his paintings. / The photo was taken in daylight and, of course, the light was not really on. / The town hall, in Gouda, the Netherlands, remains, to me the symbol of where I come from. / It is where my parents were married, in 1943. It is symbolically, where my presence, in the world was registered. It is for me, the focus of my family history.

( 1620 views, at this stage. ) / I submitted this painting in the Inspired by Rembrandt competition, in the category of Group painting (Like the Nightwatch). The Inspired by Rembrandt competition was held, in 2006, to celebrate Rembrandt’s birthday, 400 years earlier. / / My painting was based on a photo which I had taken of this girl, while she was sitting beside me in the playground (while I was on playground duty). It was in a school in the Liverpool area of Sydney. / The boys were, of course copied from a painting by Rembrandt, the famous Dutch artist. / It then featured in my Remembering: an anthology , to celebrate my 65th birthday, at the Tap Gallery, Palmer Street, Darlinghurst, 6-12 October, 2008. / / And now a great up-date: / Donna found a class-photo, on another website. / Made contact and is now aware of the painting! / 33 years have passed since we sat on one of the metal benches, in the passage-way to the playground, at the back of that school. / . / While digging through my albums: / A long time ago, I copied these stills, from my super8 movie films. / Donna would have been in Year 4 that year and might remember this. / It was the Open Day Concert for the parents. / My third grade pupils did a History of The Dance (e.g., Charleston!) / These 6th Grade girls were grateful for my permission to allow them to mime to an Elvis song!! / Lots of hip-swiveling and therefore a bit daring, ‘cause there was a lot of shakin’ going on. / It was my first year in an executive position and I was allowed to have my way. :) / / . /

The face of a young girl, who, one day, in 1975, sat beside me and the faces of two boys, originally painted by Rembrandt, who have never sat beside me. / Comments have been that viewers of this painting thought that Donna was crying. / No. She wasn’t.

Photograph of Miss B manipulated in ACDSEE Pro2 and ArcSoft Studio 5.5 to be reminiscent of the style of Dutch master, Rembrandt. The dress is by Historic Enterprises (Gwen Nowrick, www.historicenterprises.com) and is a recreation of a 14th century Flemish dress, so geographically, at least the thematic link has some basis in the real world. The stool is a copy of a Lund 3 legged stool that was very common in early medieval Viking houses, and was made by Steve Wyley (http://www.angelfire.com/planet/sventhemerchant/), a local living historian who is a member of the New Varangian Guard, a living history group in Australia. The lighting is 2 double 500W halogen work lights, which gives a quite Rembrandtesque feel in terms of color temperature and directionally.

My depiction of the Feast of Belshazzar. Years ago a student of mine did a mixed media, mostly pastel, version of Rembrandt’s famous painting. I always had fond memories of her work. She was very talented. Here I have focused on the actual writing showing it carved into the wall. I followed Rembrandt’s scheme of left to right and down in Hebrew lettering. When complete, the words read: Mene Mene Tekel Upharsin (weighed in the balances and found wanting—Aramaic). It is a digital work and I used the same hand as Rembrandt—not to plagarise but it just seemed fitting in respect to the great master.

I am such a huge admirer of Rembrandt and Vermeer, but in fact I like all the “old masters”. So I’m training myself to get as close as I can to the old painting style. For the painting I used a stock foto of Marcus Ranum. Odwin

A reproduction of Rembrandt van Rijn’s work, “The Return of the Prodigal Son”. This is a depiction of Jesus’ story recorded in the fifteenth chapter of the Gospel according to Luke. This work was completed shortly before Rembrandt’s death and masterfully portrays the suffering repentance of the son and the loving forgiveness of the bent father.

Oil on Canvas – 18” x 24” When I was twenty-one, one of my art instructors in college took out a picture of a painting by Rembrandt called “Man with the Golden Helmet” ( some say “Man in a Golden Helmet” ). He told us to “Paint this painting…..but don’t paint it exactly like you see it…...paint your interpretation of the painting.” Well, he had trouble with me, because I kept wanting to do every detail just as I saw it. I finally was able to make myself paint it differently but only in that it was just a different face. I still ended up painting it rather detailed. I’m a realist….what can I say??? Rembrandt Van Rijn – Master of light and dark. My favorite Old Master Painter.

“A Chook named Rembrandt” Photography & Artwork / by Holly Kempe © / Sony a100 camera / Photoshop CS4 artwork I found her pecking around the old timber verandas of the Lions Den Hotel in far north Queensland and thought she deserved a portrait worthy of her name. She flew up onto a timber chair placed there for the patrons and with the corrugated iron walls of the pub as a background I thought perfect and said, “now for goodness sake don’t move!”. She was very obliging although the look in her eye told me she had better things to do. :)
