With a rapidly growing international audience and collectors worldwide, Lyklema’s paintings redefine timeless beauty for the present day.
Technically realistic, yet emotionally surreal — a contemporary still life tradition where every object, animal, and shadow plays a role in a hidden story.
”I paint moments of stillness that pulse with hidden life.
Each composition begins with a single idea — a feather, a lemon, a glance — and grows into a world of tension and harmony.
My work blends the technique of the Dutch masters with the imagination of contemporary magical realism: realistic in execution, unreal in essence.”
