About the Item

Willem Jan van Balen Beach Walk 70 x 100 cm Oil pain on canvas From July 2025, our gallery presents seascapes by Willem Jan van Balen as part of our summer exhibition “Painted Nature.” “The sea brings calm through its simplicity, yet it is a source of endless variety. The viewer should be able to step into or dive into the image.” Willem Jan van Balen (b. 1973) paints the sea, the sky, and sometimes a stretch of beach. Raised in Oostvoorne on the coast, he feels deeply connected to the centuries-old Dutch tradition of depicting our timeless seas and skies—from stormy North Sea waves to crystal-clear surf and soft evening light. After studying at the art academies in Tilburg and Rotterdam, he developed unique painting techniques and effects to convincingly capture space, light, and atmosphere. His choice of acrylic paint allows him to work quickly in layers while preserving the clarity and vibrancy of color, using fluid brushstrokes that bring his landscapes to life. Willem Jan’s work combines technical mastery with a sense of presence, inviting the viewer to almost step into the sea and landscape itself. All of our art can be shipped worldwide for free. This item will be shipped safely in a wooden box.

By the Beach, Abstract Painting
By Jenn Williamson
Located in San Francisco, CA

Artist Comments
Jenn painted this piece using Golden Open Acrylics, which take longer to dry and therefore allow for more blending time. Jenn uses this technique to give the painting a dreamy and hopeful essence. "I am more passionate than ever about painting peaceful, reflective art that provides serenity and beauty," she says. This piece was painted on Arches heavyweight paper and includes a 1 5/8" border around the edge for ease of framing.


About the Artist
Jenn Williamson expertly evokes the scenery of British Columbia in her soft abstract landscapes. She utilizes defining horizontal and vertical strokes, coupled with a skillful handling of color, to create significant depth in each piece. Her paintings, though abstracted, clearly convey the atmospheric attributes of the scene–rain, wind, clouds, fog. Jenn’s muted color palette transports the viewer to the Canadian west...
