Ilse Nadort
Reizend portret kunstenaar
Mijn naam is Ilse Nadort. Ik ben een Nederlandse portret kunstenaar en fotograaf. Ik heb een passie voor fotograferen, tekenen en schilderen en dan voornamelijk op het gebied van portretkunst. Daarnaast heb ik een passie voor reizen, het ontdekken van nieuwe culturen en het ontmoeten van nieuwe mensen.
Door middel van het fotograferen, schilderen en tekenen van portretten van mensen over de hele wereld, kan ik deze twee passies met elkaar verbinden. Mooie reiservaringen zijn voor mij de inspiratie van mijn werken. Ik probeer deze unieke persoonlijkheden vast te leggen en hun verhaal te vertellen.

Looking back at my exhibition during the "Kunstparade Heiloo" on June 28-29-30, 2024. During these three fantastic days I was able to show my portraits and poems to you. I'm grateful for all the positive responses I've had that encourage me to continue creating my art. Becoming a full-time artist is and remains my dream. It's a long road with ups and downs, but I'm going for it! Next year I hope to be able to exhibit in more places. For now, keep an eye on my Instagram for more art and send me a message if you're interested! 🖼🖌🎨

OMG, it's happening! My exhibition is finally there! Today was the day to set up my stand at the "Kunstparade Heiloo ", the exhibition where I will show my work for three days. I got a helping hand from my dad, which was amazing! It was still a lot of work to set up all my paintings, poems and photos. But the end result is just beautiful! I hope to see you there on 28-28-29 June from 11am untill 5pm at the "Cultuurkoepel" in Heiloo, The Netherlands. 🖼 🖼

The final reveal of my new portrait painting! It is incredibly difficult to turn such a massive canvas around haha. You can see me struggeling when you watch my face carefully. What do you think of the final result? My cat is also impressed I guess.. 😆 I really enjoyed painting this Mentawai shaman. I especially loved painting the green scenery on the background, so I am thinking about doing some more landscapes in the future. Who knows? Let me know what you think of my new portrait! 🖌🎨

Yes, the very last brushstrokes are on the canvas! Painting the black hair immediately brings out the shaman's face. I can't wait to share the end result with you. Tomorrow the big reveal! 🎨🖌

My absolute favorite part of every portrait is painting the eyes. The eyes bring any portrait to life. You can see feelings, sometimes a whole history through someones eyes. It is so important to get the eyes right, which makes it challenging to paint eyes. But it is also the most rewarding part of every artwork. What is your favorite part to paint or draw? 🎨🖌

Finding the right skin color for the face of my new portrait. When I looked closely to the reference photo I took during my time at the Mentawai tribe, I saw some green color in the face of the shaman. At first I was a bit hesitant to use green paint, but it turned out well! Can you sport the green tones? The next part will be my favorite part: the eyes! So stay tuned! 🎨🖌

Painting the skin in more detail! This portrait is almost finished and I cannot wait to share the final result with you! In this reel I am painting more details to the skin, which is very important to make it more realistic. I am also painting the tattoos of this Mentawai shaman. All these tattoos have a special meaning. What do you think of the result? 🎨🖌

I am painting the first colored layer of the skin of my new portrait. Finding the right color for the skin can be quite difficult, because there is not one specific skin color. I mostly mix some green with red, brown, purple and yellow. So a lot of colors mixed together! Every portrait, every person and every skin is different, so look closely to your reference photo and start from there. 🖌🎨

Painting the loincloth of my portrait of a shaman living on the Mentawai islands in Indonesia. Adding some color to this painting is such a fun process! 🎨🖌

Painting the leaf of my new portrait of a shaman from the Mentawai tribe. They used this huge leaf as an umbrella to shelter from the rain. And of course in a rainforest it rains a lot! I am busy with the second colored layer which I am painting with transparent oil paint. By using transparent oil paint you can still see the brown/white underpainting underneath. 🎨🖌

Finishing the background of my new portrait! I loved painting the green scenery. I could use a big brush and just go with the flow instead of going over every little detail at least twice. Maybe I should paint some landscapes in the future as well? This first encounter with painting landscapes was for sure a lot of fun. What do you think of how the background turned out? Should I do more landscapes instead of portraits? Would love to know your opinion! 🖌🎨🌳🍃

I started painting the background of my new portrait. It will be a natural background, because the Mentawai tribe lives in the middle of the rainforest! So I am ready to get those green and brown colors going! But then a reality check hit me: I chose the biggest canvas I ever worked on (120 × 90 cm)! Which means that painting a background was taking way more time than I imagined! So let's continue with the background tomorrow! 🎨🖌

BIG NEWS! In exactly one month I will exhibit my artworks at the Kunstparade in Heiloo, North Holland, the Netherlands! There is still a lot that needs to be done, but I am so excited!

How to start off a new project, a new phase? Fully confident or a bit scared? I am always a bit scared when I start a new project. Because I am not sure if I can do it the way I want it. Yes, I am a perfectionist. A perfectionist that loves to try out new things, but never without some fear of failing. I want to do things perfect in the first try. I am scared of making mistakes, but why? Failing can lead to a beautiful learning curve and growth. So why are we so scared of failing? It's probably the judgment of other people. The word "failing" itself is always interpreted in a negative way. Let's not talk about failing, but instead about "growing". And in order to grow we need to actually start doing those new scary things. I am ready to make mistakes, to fail, to learn and to grow. Are you ready as well? ✨️

I finished the underpainting of my new portrait of a shaman living on the Mentawai islands in Indonesia! This portrait is my first painting of a new series of the Mentawai tribe. I want to share with you how this tribe lives close the nature in the middle of the rainforest. I stayed with this tribe for 5 days to experience their daily life. Stay tuned for more! 🎨🖌

I am finishing the underpainting of this portrait! I completed the first stage. Now I need to wait to let the paint dry before I can start with the next stage: the colored layer! Stay tuned! 🎨🖌

I am almost finished with the underpainting! Just a couple of details in the face are remaining. I love painting the eyes. It is my favorite part of every portrait. The saying goes: "Eyes are the mirror of the soul" and I absolutely agree with that. Before painting the eyes in a portrait, I just see a body with no life in it. As soon as I start painting the eyes, I can feel the person portrayed coming to life. His or her eyes tell their story. And that is what I want to accomplish with my portraits: telling the stories of people. 🖌🎨

I am painting the details on the chest of this Mentawai shaman. Through painting this portrait I am re-experiencing my time at this Mentawai family. I was impressed by how close they live with nature, like hunters and gatherers did a long time ago. The tattoos on the chest I am painting represent a bow and arrow, because hunting is very important within the Mentawai tribe. This shaman showed us how to make the poison for the arrows. I think we lost our connection with nature in the western world and I hope we are able to restore it before it is too late. 🎨🖌

Oops, almost forgot to post this reel about painting the other arm and hand! I struggled a lot when painting this hand. I used more than 1 reference photo, because on the photo I am painting his hand was missing, so I had to replace that part with another photo. And that was pretty difficult! What is the most difficult part for you to paint? 🖌🎨

I am painting the chest of my new portrait. In this phase I am still busy with the underpainting, which means I am painting a first layer with only two colors: brown and white. This allows me to focus on light and darkness in this portrait. The second layer will be in color. How do you set up a painting? Do you use an underpainting or do you start directly with colors? 🎨🖌

In this reel I am painting one arm of my portrait of a Mentawai shaman from Indonesia. This portrait is teaching me a lot about the human anatomy. I love painting people, because it allows to dive deeper into cultures, into how different people experience and live life and to tell their stories to the rest of the world. What are your favorite subjects to paint and why? 🎨🖌

I am painting the traditional loincloth this shaman from the Mentwai tribe is wearing. These clothes are made from the bark of a tree. It is amazing to see how close they live with nature and how they use every material they find in the rainforest. 🌳🍃🌳

The first step of a new portrait is the sketch! The sketch is very important, because in this phase you have to get the proportions right. The grid will help me with this. Furthermore, you can see if the composition is right or you can still make some changes. If I am not totally satisfied with the sketch, I will not continue with using paint. I will make adjustments untill I am fully satisfied. Then it is time to go to the next phase: the underpainting! ✏️✏️✏️

My biggest painting so far! Before I start sketching, I always make a grid first. This will help me with the proportions when sketching on such a big canvas. My Nepal series are finished, so this will be the first portrait of my new series: the Indonesia series of the Mentawai tribe. Let's do this! How do you start with a new painting?

Background story:
These children are from the Dalit community, the lowest social class in Nepal. Opportunities for children born in this caste are limited. Discrimination and stigmatization are still commonplace. Although there is more awareness about child marriage, there is often no other choice due to a lack of money to send children to school. Yet a young man from this caste escaped his faith. He is not married and studied in the capital city. Now he tries to help the village through his foundation. There is hope that a new generation will emerge that can look beyond the caste divide. A generation that strives for equality and stands up for its rights. A generation that looks at similarities instead of focusing on differences. The way these children play with each other without discrimination, without judgement. That gives hope for the future. 💛☀️

Achtergrondverhaal:
Deze kinderen zijn van de Dalit gemeenschap, de allerlaagste sociale klasse in Nepal. De kansen voor kinderen geboren in deze kaste zijn beperkt. Discriminatie en stigmatisering zijn nog van alledag. Hoewel er meer bewustzijn is rondom kindhuwelijken is er vaak geen andere keuze vanwege een gebrek aan geld om kinderen naar school te sturen. Toch is een jongeman uit deze kaste de dans ontsprongen. Hij is niet getrouwd en gaan studeren in de hoofdstad. Nu probeert hij via zijn stichting het dorp te helpen. Er is hoop dat een nieuwe generatie opstaat die over de kastenscheiding heen kan kijken. Een generatie die streeft naar gelijkheid en opkomt voor haar rechten. Een generatie die kijkt naar overeenkomsten in plaats van focust op verschillen. Zoals deze kinderen met elkaar spelen zonder onderscheid te maken, zonder oordeel. Dat geeft hoop voor de toekomst. 💛☀️

My first diptych ever is finished! I already revealed the two individual portraits, but now I will show them together! The diptych is for sale. I only sell the two portraits together, because that is how I inteded it: as one piece of art. What do you think of the final result? Do you like the portraits more as a diptych or as individual portraits? 🎨🖌

This is the reveal of my second portrait that is part of my diptych! This is the portrait of a Nepali boy I photographed in Kataiya, a small village in the southeast of Nepal. During my time in Kataiya it was extremly hot (40 degrees Celsius), so during the day everybody stayed inside. But when the sun was setting all the children gathered on the playground. They played together untill it was dark and I joined them. On the playground I met this playful young boy. He was shy at first, but his curiosity won. I loved his smile and I knew immediately that I wanted to capture that. Now I turned my photograph into a portrait with oil paint on linen. What do you think? 🖌🎨

Yes, my diptych is finally finished! Today I will reveal the portrait of a Nepali girl. Last year when I was traveling through Nepal, I visited the small town Kataiya in the south. I stayed a couple of days with a local family. During my time in the village this girl stood out. She was always smiling and very playful and curious. I simply loved her energy. I had to photograph her and now I finished her portrait almost one year later. I hope she will always keep her cheerfulness, curiosity and energy as she grows up! 🖌🎨

This portrait of a Nepali girl is also nearly finished! I will do the reveal tomorrow, so stay tuned! In this video I painted the hair, which is most of the time a very slow process. I do not paint every little hair, but still it is time consuming! How do you paint hair? Do you get stuck in all the little details or do you keep it abstract? 🎨🖌

When painting a diptych, most of the time the subject of one canvas continues on the other. So you need to make sure to paint them at the same time, so the color matches. How do you think I did with my first diptych? 🖌🎨

Background story:
This woman is from the Dalit community, the lowest social class in Nepal. Once born into this caste, life is already set for you. A life without rights, of hard work and marrying young. In the past, children were measured using a stick. When they were tall enough, they could get married. This woman is originally from India, but around the age of ten she was married off to a boy from Nepal. She was carried to her new home on her brother's shoulders. A new country, a new village, a new family. Here she was expected to immediately start performing household duties. Her opinion was not asked. Life was already mapped out for her.
Child marriages still take place in Nepal, especially among lower castes. Although marriages under the age of 18 are officially banned, persistent poverty, lack of opportunities, age-old traditions and the caste system prove stronger than Nepalese law.

Background story:
This man is from the Muhasar caste, the lowest social class in Nepal. Muhasar literally means "rat eater". This name comes from the time when the Muhasar caught rats that entrenched themselves in the rice fields and disrupted the harvest. The Muhasar caught the rats at the risk of their lives, because poisonous snakes also hid in the holes. The rats were eaten in times of scarcity. This man has experienced a lot of discrimination because of his caste. The lower castes were not allowed to touch food or drink, otherwise it was considered impure and immediately thrown away. When they made a mistake, they were beaten or even thrown out of the village. They were not allowed to own land. Instead, they worked hard for landowners from sunrise to sunset in exchange for food. Although much has changed, the castes still live separately from each other and the lower castes are still not seen as equal. Officially, the caste system no longer exists, but it will take many generations before the caste system disappears in practice.
