Description of the Artwork “Unicorn”
There are also fabulous creatures in the dream world. Who are surrounded by magic and mystery. They are rarely seen by normal residents. The Unicorns, for example, are gone before they are even seen. In the corner of an eye and with a wink, what was that and they are already gone. Incomprehensible and intangible, it is as if they are sooner there than the time that has yet to come.

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.
