"Left Behind I" (2019) is part of a new series Marko Klomp started in 2019. In each of these painting, Marko Klomp paints in his signature 'soft focus' style a vast landscape with a singular animal figure. The work in this series is very large and the sense of isolation is painfully poetic in each piece.

In Left Behind IV, we see a penguin on the edge of a piece of ice. A greyish, white glacier looms in the background above the penguin and the grey ocean. It is a very darl monochrome painting in varying white and grey scales. It is cool and cold, and you can feel the polar environment.

In a Room "Left Behind IV' (2020). Marko Klomp. Oil on Linen. 100 cm x 120cm.

The oil painting is large and will be a central piece in any room you put it. It is sophisticated, cool and- the beauty of this painting is in its coldness.
