"Winter scene near a village" - Framed ready to Hang

I love the winter-scenes with ice-skaters and all sorts of activity you would have seen in those days. Long time ago, when I was in first grade, the first drawing we had to create was an ice skating scene. That is 65 years ago. So, this memory goes back to my youth. Please note; this is not a copy of an existing old painting! You might think this, but it is an original, which I painted not long after I was recovering from a mild stroke. It has not been on exhibition ever, so this is its premiere. A great talking piece and deserves a very important place in your house.

Note: If you who would like to view my paintings in person, you are welcome to a live viewing at the seriously chique " Hampton Estate Wines " on Mount Tamborine (Gold Coast hinterland) where there are always around 20-30 paintings on show. Worth coming up the mountain for a day trip if you are visiting the Gold Coast , Queensland 4272, Australia.

Kivits’ classic oeuvre includes not only original Still-life’s, but also Fruit and Floral compositions, Landscapes, Seascapes and Figurative works in glazes of oil-paint. Predominantly tapping into his antique collection for inspiration, his works take considerably longer to produce; hence a small number of masterpieces are created annually.
True traditional realism, all in the line from the Sixteenth century European Masters onward, he is staying true to these time-proven styles, refusing digital means to aid his work, e.g. projection, pre-printed canvas, grid tracings, or anything but the skill of his own eyes to hand.
Dutch-born Kivits' has firmly established himself in Australia as a legitimate Brand over the years, and his creations have found their ways to art lovers in many developed countries.
