"Yellow brick road" is a luminous and textured abstract where warm yellow tones build a layered, tactile surface on canvas. The work's title evokes a sense of journey, hope and discovery—qualities that resonate in Van den Bosch's intuitive, spontaneous approach to her medium and her exploration of color, texture and layering.
Van den Bosch—completely self-taught and fully committed to her art since her forties—creates mixed-media pieces characterized by powerful, spontaneous gestures with which she brings emotions to the canvas without hesitation. With rough, uninhibited brushstrokes, by carving, rubbing, discarding and rebuilding, she creates unique tension in each painting. Her diverse oeuvre includes works with bright, bold colors on one hand and monochrome surfaces on the other.
At 60 x 80 x 2.5 cm, this is a versatile statement piece that works beautifully in contemporary interiors. The yellow brings warmth, optimism and energy to a space—inviting the viewer on a visual journey. The title suggests a path forward, discovery and the courage to move into the unknown, while Van den Bosch's signature materiality and texture ground the work in tactile presence.
The work reflects Van den Bosch's deep connection to nature and the spiritual laws of the universe, themes that inspire her collections and her exploration of balance and harmony—values she honors deeply in her life.
This is ideal for collectors who appreciate textured abstraction with vibrant color, emotional resonance and a sense of optimism and possibility.
