This page of "Notities" by Reijer Stolk is like a peek into the artist’s brain. It’s all scribbled in a way that feels both urgent and casual, like jotting down fleeting thoughts before they disappear. I imagine Stolk hunched over this notebook, maybe in a cafe, words tumbling out of him as he tries to keep up. It reminds me of my own process, throwing down marks and colors, trying to capture something elusive before it’s gone. These aren’t so much formal notes as little bursts of inspiration. There’s a real rhythm to the words, and they create a sense of movement and energy on the page. You can almost feel him thinking, questioning, and connecting ideas in real-time. And isn't that what all artists are doing, really? We're all just riffing off each other, remixing the past in our own way.
