Her work distinguishes itself from children&#8217;s drawings, however, because of the intensity with which it is made. She works for weeks, even months, on one drawing. Once the white of the paper has been covered in paint, Jolanda goes over that with oil pastels.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Because she intensively applies one colour after another with chalk, deeper nuances of colour arise. She then scratches the upper layer away with a scriber, so that the underlying layers are partially visible again. This leads to new colour combinations. The lines created with the scriber are an essential element in the picture. The regularity with which she applies the scriber lends the work rhythm and movement. The interplay of lines brings the shapes to life. Jolanda used to work in graphic techniques but her pieces weren&#8217;t picked up by the media, according to art historian Dolf Welling of the\u00a0<em>Rotterdams Dagblad. <\/em>&#8220;Animal prints steal the show at Galerie Herenplaats. Jolanda Cortenberghe&#8217;s are irresistible. She writes on her linocut that it is frog or a swan; Her duck is egg yellow stroke-ability&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Jolanda has been working at Atelier Juffrouw Jansen since 2015.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Exhibitions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1992\u00a0 Laurenskerk, Rotterdam<br \/>\n1993\u00a0 Caf\u00e9 Witte de With, Rotterdam<br \/>\n1993\u00a0\u00a0Vaizon la Romaine, France<br \/>\n1999\u00a0 Courthouse, Rotterdam<br \/>\n1999\u00a0\u00a0The Universal Printshow, Gallery Project A,\u00a0Glasgow, Scotland<br \/>\n1999\u00a0\u00a0MAD-Attack, Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Art Diff\u00e9renci\u00e9, Belgium<br \/>\n2002\u00a0\u00a0International exhibition &#8220;Simple Things&#8221;,\u00a0Riga, Latvia<br \/>\n2002\u00a0\u00a0Landscapes, Galerie Herenplaats, Rotterdam<br \/>\n2003\u00a0 The Universal Print show, Project Ability,\u00a0Glasgow, Scotland<br \/>\n2003\u00a0 Zhaka Zulu, Galerie Herenplaats, Rotterdam<br \/>\n2006\u00a0 Jubileum exhibition &#8220;15 years Herenplaats&#8221;,\u00a0Galerie Herenplaats Rotterdam<br \/>\n2008\u00a0 Exhibition in Niki Kurabu, Tokyo, Japan<br \/>\n2009\u00a0 Exhibition in Care Center Frankeland,\u00a0Schiedam<br \/>\n2010\u00a0 &#8220;Outsider Art Salon&#8221;, Galerie Herenplaats,\u00a0Rotterdam<br \/>\n2011\u00a0 Exhibition &#8216;Care Center Crimpenersteyn&#8217;, Krimpen a\/d IJssel<br \/>\n2014\u00a0 Graphics exhibition, Atelier 23, Linden, Germany<\/p>\n<p><strong>Collections<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Collectie Max E.
