Diederick Kraaijeveld is a self taught artist who has been collecting things and making art out of that for a great part of his life. Touting his art as ‘photorealistic painting with vintage original colored salvaged wood,’ he does cars and everyday stuff like sneakers, bottles, glasses etc. Lately, the man has done a special commission for the CEO of Spyker Cars, the Spyker # 093 of Victor Muller himself. Most of his artwork measures approx 50 inches and is made using salvaged wood only Kraaijeveld finds during his travels and daytrips in Holland and abroad. His first piece of art in Oudhout was a Mustang 1966, once the proud wheels of the artist himself. To make his art, not only cars, but also icons like tennis shoes, a coffee cup or a ketchup bottle, Oudhout uses different types of saws. Every piece of his assemblages is genuine coloured vintage wood. No paint is used, not even a driblet. His works can take weeks or much longer, depending on the availability of wood, inspiration and complexity of the piece. Prices for Oudhout motoart are 5000 Euros and up.
