Description of the Artwork “Marshsurfers”
In the endless marshlands, the Marshsurfers are truly in their element. Beneath silver veils of mist and among waters that shimmer like liquid moonlight, they glide gracefully across the ancient swamps they call home. Their long journeys carry them through winding rivers of emerald reeds, beneath towering willow trees whose branches whisper forgotten secrets to the wind. For days at a time, the Marshsurfers wander through the mysterious wetlands in search of wondrous discoveries. They follow the glowing trails of rare creatures hidden beneath the lilies, study strange plants that bloom only under the light of the full moon, and marvel at bubbling gases that rise from the dark waters in sparkling clouds of blue and green. Every ripple, every glimmer, and every soft rustle in the marsh fills them with excitement, for the swamps are alive with magic and endless mysteries waiting to be uncovered.

Ed Schaap, Netherlands
My name is Ed Schaap, I was born in Sittard, Limburg, Netherlands in 1965. As a child, I already showed a penchant for fantasy and science fiction movies and series that were shown on television at the time. Especially around the time movies like Star Wars and Alien came out, I was fascinated and fascinated by this unknown world. As for the art that I create, I have to say that I have been influenced and inspired by certain artists and concept artists, but over time I have found my own way. The works that I create are, as a rule, subjects from history, myths and legends, as well as things from everyday life. I give my own vision. In the beginning I used an airbrush. At a certain point, I started to miss a few things in my work. While experimenting with the combination of brush and airbrush, I realized that the painterly effect of brushwork was the missing element in my work. With these two components together in my recent work I find the result satisfactory. Despite this result, I also started painting with oils. Here a completely new world opened up for me, for example, the colors obtained with oil paint are almost impossible to create with acrylic paint.
