Website Contents
The Atelier Waldlaterne website focusses on two areas of interest: 1) Photography, including mounting and framing of photographs; 2) Oil paintings of still life objects, and hand-coloured caricatures and prints.
Photo Boulevard
Follow the sign for Photo Boulevard to visit the Galleries of Photographs, including Black & White or Duotone renderings of scanned negatives. Some Photographs are offered for sale as Limited Edition Giclée Prints.
Also in this section, information about one-to-one tuition aimed at amature photographers in Germany who want to learn about mounting and framing their photographs.
Painting Avenue
The second destination introduces Jolanda's oil paintings. These are Still Life paintings, in the style of 18th century Dutch and French master painters.
Also in this section are samples of the hand colouring work Jolanda specialised in while in Scotland. Antique caricatures from Punch magazine, of classic sporting scenes such as golfing and angling. And traditional Dutch and Scottish city scapes, meticulously hand-coloured with finest water colour paints, recreating the art that was custom in the age before colour printing.
Country Lane
The Country Lane leads to our personal corner, our living room so to speak, in which Jolanda and I record some of our personal impressions and memories.
The name Waldlaterne is from the 'Narnia Lamppost' which is planted between a collection of shrubs and trees: Wald being the German word for 'a wood' and laterne meaning lamppost. Walk a bit further along Country Lane to browse (and download if you wish) some pictures of the Narinia Lamppost.
Where is Waldmark
Waldmark in Germany is a rather remote, rural area of farm fields and forests on gentle hills, with some farms and cottages scattered around.
The area is part of the Osnabrücker Land and is surrounded by quaint little towns and villages, and enveloped in peace and quiet.
