Gerrit van Houten

Gerrit van Houten, also known as Gerry Wood, was a Dutch painter and artist. Gerrit van Houten left about 900 drawings, 180 watercolours and 85 oil paintings. Most of the drawings are sketches and detail, colour and composition studies. For Gerrit drawing was an aid. In his sketchbook, he recorded anything that might serve as the subject of a watercolour or oil painting. Even finished drawings must be seen as studies, although studies or compositions have been found for few of his oil paintings and watercolours. He probably did much of his work en plein air location. His subjects were never far away: the garden and surroundings of the house in Groningen, the landscape of the province of Twente when he was staying in Almelo, portraits and still lifes.
