安德烈·罗梅恩 (André Romijn) 热爱艺术史，是一位自学成才的肖像画家。他的大部分职业生涯都致力于兽医出版和在线教育，并以此为生，全身心投入到油画创作中。自2020年以来，他全身心投入肖像和具象油画创作。安德烈·罗梅恩出生于1960年，荷兰。他在英国生活多年，但由于英国脱欧，他搬到了意大利托斯卡纳山区的一座中世纪小镇巴尔加 (Barga)。他的艺术创作重心是肖像和具象绘画。我喜欢创作美学艺术，创作赏心悦目、令人愉悦的画作。女性肖像画尤其能给我带来这种感受，我希望其他人也能有同样的感受。虽然我也画过一些男性肖像，但我觉得画女性更有趣。女性是生命的象征。过去我们见过多少女性独裁者？我认为女性是创造者，她们既温柔又强大，因此比男性更加神秘。我喜欢把女性描绘成“坚强”的人物，充满自信。这就是我喜欢关注眼睛的原因。纵观历史，女性在艺术中常常被描绘成谦卑顺从的性对象。当她们以平等的姿态面对观众时，男女之间的不平等就消失了。对我来说，看到女性尤其喜欢我的画作，这很有意思。我也意识到有些男性并不欣赏我的一些作品，因为这些作品对他们来说似乎过于具有对抗性。我认为肖像画是灵魂的镜子。观众会与我的画作产生联系。这是他们在自身中发现的某种东西，还是…… “您是否渴望或抱负成为肖像画中的模特？谁知道呢？”受许多古典和当代画家的启发，安德烈将传统学院派绘画技巧与现代风格融为一体。他主要使用油画创作写实肖像和具象艺术。他的作品尺寸从小型研究（10 x 15 厘米）到 1.2 x 1.5 米等大型作品不等。2022 年 4 月，安德烈在巴尔加老城中心开设了“肖像画画廊”。2020 年，罗梅因的画作《埃尔维拉》荣获“年度艺术家——创造力，巴勒莫艺术博览会”奖。安德烈的作品曾在米兰、维也纳、威尼斯和巴勒诺展出。今年晚些时候（2022 年），他的作品将参加巴黎、罗马、巴塞罗那和荷兰的不同艺术博览会。他的作品被美国、英国和欧洲的艺术收藏家收藏。今年，他将参加第三届“今日艺术家”和“2023 年荷兰艺术家年鉴”的评选。
你好，我是
André Romijn
I love to create aesthetic art. Paintings that you enjoy looking at and that make you happy. That is what female portraits in particular do for me and I hope you will have the same experience.

Art and history has always played an important part of my live. More as an observer than really make art. I have started from time to time, but never had the patience or time to make a proper painting. I started very young to make photos and was already interested in portraiture. Also my art collection, which has been expanding over the years, contains a lot of portraits.
Just before the COVID pandemic, I made the decision to spend more time for the arts and start to draw and paint. When I discovered the techniques of the 19th Century Academies, I was able to grasp the ‘secrets’ about portraiture and figurative art. Nothing to do with waiting for a divine touch, but just basic geometry. Since then I practice every day, which during the COVID time I could do without any distractions! Hours and many more hours have past and I think my work is improving. But not there yet!
How would you describe your work to someone seeing it for the first time?
That depends on what they see. It is only recently that I have found my ‘own’ style. Before that it was a mixture of technique, compositions and style of mainly old masters. But overall it is realism, with a touch of romanticism and symbolism. But normally I don’t have to describe my work when people see it for the first time. They speak for themselves.
What and which artists have influenced your work?
I think it is a culmination of all those years visiting museums, historic houses and galleries. And of course reading books about art history. As a child I was collecting books and currently I have a large library with thousands of art, art history and history as a subject. Great for references as every day there is a moment to open a book or two. So, from all those encounters and experiences, there is always something you will take on-board.
If you could collaborate with any artist past or present, who would you select and why?
Difficult, as there are so many, but Rembrandt is a great contender, but so is van Gogh. Both for their curiosity to try new techniques, thinking out of the box and brave enough to do something new, which was not always the cup of tea of their would be customers. But there are others as well. It would be great to be a day in the studio of the 19th Century Italian painter Antonio Mancini.
未来我们可以期待看到您什么作品？仍在探索技术，融合抽象与现实主义，这是一次伟大发现的旅程！
