Artist
Profile Eline de Jonge is an internationally exhibiting artist in Europe and the United States. Her work is in numerous private and corporate collections, including the headquarters of Loyens & Loeff in Amsterdam. Her fascination with her favorite city New York, resulted in the series of oil paintings “Shadows New York” and have been recently extended with “Shadows of Paris and Rome”. Her New York paintings depict scenes such as Grand Central Terminal, street scenes with moving taxicabs, ice skaters in Central Park and the New York Stock Exchange. The focal point of her work is from height and distance, showing dramatic shadows and is created with oil or mixed media on large canvases. Her successful New York series has led to many commissions from the United States, to Europe and Hong Kong as well as Cape Town. Eline has had numerous exhibitions including those at the Weesper Gallery in Amsterdam, The Housatonic Museum in Bridgeport, The Westport Art Center and the Singer Museum in Laren, the Netherlands. She won several awards including a one-person show at the Westport Art Center.
