Johan de Fre at Oakham Contemporary.
Johan de Fre was born in Lokeren, Belgium in 1952. He moved to Antwerp where he became involved with the Antwerp Classical School. He is strongly influenced by the Masters of seventeenth century Dutch still life painting, particularly Jan Van Eyck and Willem Claesz Heda. His technique continues their tradition of favouring wooden panels over canvas. The faultlessly smooth surface this allows shows off Johan's extraordinarily delicate brushstrokes and unparalleled attention to detail.
