Ewoud de Groot
Genre
Abstract/Contemporary, Animals, Contemporary Western
Ewoud de Groot lives and works in Egmond aan Zee, a coastal village in the north of the Netherlands. Born in 1969 in Alkmarr, he attended the Minerva Academy of Art in Groningen, and received a degree in illustration and painting. After illustrating nature books for a period, he began painting full-time. De Groot spends a significant amount of time exploring the Waddensea, on his former shrimp trawler, an internationally known wetland that is actually a chain of islands, mudflats, and sandbanks, starting in the Netherlands and ending in the south of Denmark. Thus, his subjects are often seabirds and waders.
His work has been featured in many exhibitions in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and the United States. De Groot's work hangs in both private, corporate and museum collections across Europe, Scandinavia and America. He is a member of the 'Pulchri Studio' - the artist society of The Hague and the most prestigious in Holland. He also is a member of several art organizations, including the Society of Animal Artists.
