Techniques
Since graduating from the Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam, I have worked in oil paint, acrylics and watercolor. In recent years I have focused on watercolor.

Themes
Recurring themes in Willy van den Berg's work are light versus dark and abstraction alongside figuration. Small solitary figures are searching for memories and images from the past in a timeless, alienating and silent world. The search leads to an unknown future in an enigmatic environment enclosed by geometric boundaries. Graphic shapes and lines are combined  with passages in color.

Works in collections
My work is included in several collections in the Netherlands, the United States (including New York and Los Angeles), England, France, Canada and Italy.
