Rineke made Blossom, floating on a surface, inspired by magnolia in the garden and water lilies during a walk. The work is signed with her “Crazy face”. The fresh spring is really splashing off. Delicious!

On Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 May, I will participate in the National Studio Weekend with hundreds of other artists. Take this unique opportunity to step into my studio and experience the work and creative process up close. During the weekend I will show a selection of my glass 3D objects and my bronze sculptures. Come and look around, ask questions and discover how an idea develops into a work of art. I hope to see you!

The checkered suit of a harlequin inspired Rineke to make Harlequino. If you look through it, the colors of the ‘pixels’ mix into the most delicious summer pastels. It makes you feel good!

Rineke made quadruplets of blue droplets through which plenty of light can pass. The work gives a feeling of a nice fresh shower at the end of a warm lazy day.

Glass, as transparent as the sky to let light through, or colored to filter the light. In each of Gradient’s stack of pixels, a colored element is replaced by a clear element. The beautiful gradient of color is the result, from deep golden to completely clear.

It has been quiet around Rineke’s work for a long time due to her move from Elst to the Brabant village of Gemert. In the meantime, a lovely light studio has been set up where Rineke can finally get back to work! Rineke had been walking around with a plan for a new glass fusion object for a while and the implementation of the plan started today. Great to be able to get back to work!
