Model and muse Lisa
Photography assistance Flavio Maestroni

For this project I painted Lisa from the commonly reffered to “divers paradise” Bonaire. I could not have wished for a nice place to paint. Sunny Florida days and a pool ready to have a dip after a long day of work. Thank you Mark Kravitz and the Aviah crew for the immaculate care, trust and support.
Also a big thanks goes out to my buddy Brian for opening his house to me and helping out wherever needed. 2nd photo is his📸❤️ And special thanks to my now pregnant friend and model Lisa.

De Laat started painting murals and canvases, often based on his own photographs of the people he met during his travels. He exaggerates the natural lines in their faces, and fills the spaces that appear between those swirling lines with swaths of vivid color. The linework and color palette he applies in that way, are a means of translating his memories of Latin America to visual imagery. The food, the architecture, the clothes, and particularly his respect for the culture of indigenous peoples; it’s all in there, as de Laat transitions it over to enliven drab Western concrete.
