Channeling Vermeer

Posted by Queuebot in Everything Else on January 12, 2009 at 12:57 pm

Jonathan Janson paints today’s interwebby people  in a 17th c. Dutch sort of way.  Among his works are Girl in a Red Cap, Young Man with a Cell Phone, and my favorite, Young Girl Writing an Email.

Janson’s paintings have the luminous quality that made Vermeer famous, and his website, Essential Vermeer, indicates he’s spent a lot of time studying the master. He’s learned some good lessons.
