Aart's Studio

Aart's Studio, located in Arvada, Colorado, showcases the original oil paintings of artist Aart Rietveld, who hails from Dordrecht, Holland. A self-taught artist, Rietveld has transitioned from pen and ink and watercolor to focus exclusively on oil painting over the past two decades, exploring themes that span from European landscapes to the Western United States.

Rietveld's current work features a poignant series depicting forgotten trades in Holland, illustrating the profound impact of automation on traditional occupations. With a unique, unstructured approach akin to a pianist without sheet music, he creates art that is both spontaneous and deeply personal.
