In this Man of Sorrow written word and figurative elements were combined. The contrast indicates the sadness the man's experiencing.

About Me
- Dominique d'Orange
- I am a Belgian artist who enrolled in the art school in Bruges and studied at the academy of Fine Arts in Ostend. My immense oeuvre consists of acrylic, oil and wall paintings, aluminium and paper prints, installations, mixed media and multimedia work, photography, pastel drawings, gouache, abstract and graphic work. I have studied, taught and created my entire life and feel like I have now come to a point of having a clear and defined view upon which elements in art are necessary and fundamental according to me. My artwork evolved from a classical, academic to a contemporary and graphic style, with an emphasis on lines, compositions, relief and colour.

Quotes
"Art is emotion, a lot of people aren't able to sense it."
"An artist has to be authentic, have the time to develop his/her own style."
“Happiness is … sitting alone in front of an impressionist painting, absorbing it, enjoying the colours, sensing the atmosphere, studying the technique.”
