The white in the picture is the canvas that is unpainted and the light is not caused by bad photography, but intended and painted. These paintings are painted on flat canvas and not on 3D boxes. This is a quotation from Saatchionline.com [[http://www.saatchionline.com/UlrichdeBalbian]]. I have obtained images from a few of these works from the artist and will upload them here.

Born 1944 from parents (father Dutch-French)(mother German), in several countries where his parents lived and worked, thus diverse education and knowledge of several languages. Father veterinarian, mother medical doctor. University degrees in Art, social sciences, Philosophy, religion. Worked as researcher in sociology and sociological theory, as well as lecturer in art, religion and philosophy.
Initial art education in the line of Paul Klee, Kandinsky, and French Expressionist such as Monet, and contemporary painters influenced by them. Ordained as both priest and later Christian priest and live as a hermit monk or solitary contemplative. Studied the major world faiths, especially their mystics strand or spirituality. Created and moderate several Yahoo list on this subject and act as spiritual director to a number of individuals, such as serious laity, priests and bishops (Dominic Filipowicz Polish-America at beatsmyth@yahoo.com can provide information on this, as well as Prod Dr Claudio Sanchez-Escobar, ansanes@us.es, Dr Verster, academic and hermit, benoinim@gmail.com).
He intentionally choose to work as a painter, rather than any of the more gimmicky and fashionable genres of the day such as performance art or installations.He has ateliers in several countries, including France, Spain and South Africa and has British nationality, among others. He believes that it is still possible to develop the genre of painting itself and sums up his work as follows:
The Right Reverend Dr Ulrich de Balbian Verster; has ateliers in several countries, including South Africa. He
researches western painterly techniques and the structures of the western painterly code or discourse through the ages; especially interested in Bauhaus, Klee, Kandinsky, Picasso, Expressionists, some Impressionists such as Monet, and the contemporary artists influenced by them. In every work of mine I share with you one aspect of my aesthetic ideals and vision. Principles and factors that hopefully will introduce eternally lasting qualities into and transform the discourse of painting, like the works of the handful of serious artists have done over the ages. Lectured and published books and articles in philosophy (eg ontology and epistemology), theology, world religions, art, social sciences and other subjects. Spiritually (or theologically) especially interested in the mystical traditions (of prayer, contemplation and thesis or the unity experience)in Christianity (Western, Eastern and Oriental Orthodoxy), Vedanta's self-realization, Buddhism's satori, Sufism. Been a contemplative solitary (spiritual hermit) and spiritual director/teacher for several decades, in the UK, Spain, France, etc.
One of his websites for spirituality can be found at:

TRINITY PRIORY INTERNATIONAL
Monastics, Oblates, hermits, laity, enquirers associated with interdenominational (RC, Orthodox, Anglican, etc) Trinity Priory International
Recent Abstract paintings, using Acrylic as medium, mostly done on AMEDEO Art paper, but some on canvas, sacking and linen.
Short statement by the artist from the previous link at Saatchionline:
I now , since 2 years ago, paint most of the time -
that is if mundane matters, like walking my 4 American Pitbulls, or
being in union or dark/infused contemplation with "Hashem" ('the eternal', the name, the source and ground of all) -
or caring for the MANY individuals who night and day arrive at my hermit's hideout -
allow it.
All work shown here are from 2010 onwards (so far more than 500),
as all work prior to that are either lost (because of my residence in a number of countries), or en masse in some private collections. See the link at South African Artists, for work from 2010.
Money itself does not concern me as I live under a vow of poverty and own VERY little, and it goes to charities in developing countries.
Well, I hope that some aspects of my Well, I hope that some aspects of my aesthet(ical? I never know which of the 2 are the appropriate adjective? As aesthetic/al are always confused by most people) vision and ideals (truths that are eternal, lasting, universal and permanent - and are expressed in insights in all cultural practices, be they sciences, music, humanities, arts, spirituality, etc) do come across to the 'viewer' of, or rather participants and co-creators, of my work -
and develop the potential of every individual to be:
fully in the present her and now -
as the one universal Real Self (of Vedanta),
or the enlightened cosmic Buddha mind,
or the Love of the Beloved of the Sufis,
or the Holy Spirit of "Hashem', etc etc...
And that you yourself realize the inner peace and balance that I was granted.
Thanks for using your time, when you could have done many other things, but, perhaps my work enable you to interact with 'the eternal', or the ground and source of all, as it is, hopefully, allowed to be manifested and channeled in some of my work.
...it goes you well, as you live creatively at every arising moment and be the pure, unrestricted awareness and One consciousness or the One, Universal Real Self, that all creatures, each in its own way, have the potential to be.....
The words on his tombstone, Klee's credo, placed there by his son Felix, say, "I cannot be grasped in the here and now, For my dwelling place is as much among the dead, As the yet unborn, Slightly closer to the heart of creation than usual, But still not close enough."
“ Art does not reproduce the visible; rather, it makes visible. ”
—Paul Klee.

[[An iconic example of a painting by a modern master in which almost the entire range of techniques for the Acrylic medium is employed;for example: opaque, transparent, washes, colors direct from the tube as well as mixing previous to application and on the support, sweeping as well as controlled strokes, large and minute, spirited, vigorous as well as controlled composition, thick and thin application, mixed with white to lighten the tone, or darkened, saturated and unsaturated, dry-brush and scumbling, over textured dry ground or the clean support, different types of blending, opaque, cross-hatching, wet-in-wet, on wet paper, with a damp brush, optical blending, glazing, all prima, etc.]] For more of his works Google and for details about Ulrich de Balbian see 'D" under requested biographies Visual Artists or Painters.File:Blacks browns purple yellow and a.jpg'Aerial View' by Ulrich de Balbian
The following painting by Ulrich de Balbian was seen in a dream by him, then constructed and a painting in oil media on canvas was made of the construction (thus it should be included in 'New Genres' art).
File:Seeninadream.jpgSeen in a dream oil painting of a constructionby Ulrich de Balbian
Two other New Genres, mixed media works by the same artist. The Jacaranda project as described by the artist on several online Art galleries for example Saatchionline, Art Break, Art Majeur, etc :
"I had a dream of a house where I should commence a Jacaranda project. This consisted of finding the house in a country and area where the Genus Jacaranda of the 49 species of the Bigoniaceae family could be planted. I found the country, and area and the house that I bought. I then constructed the hedge as in my dream and planted the Jacaranda plant I dreamed of. Then I painted the hedge with the Jacarandas in bloom in Oil. Here is the result - 1 of 5 paintings." As can be seen from this description, the artist had to study ecology to find regions where this type of plant grows, the searched the country and the regions to find the house he dreamed of, then constructed the hedge as viewed in his dream and planted the Jacaranda plants. Then he painted this construction in oil, as can be seen in the image here. The entire process of his searching, gardening etc was filmed. Another project is his Fairy Circle project. Some of these works were sold for $1,000,000.
Another development by Ulrich de Balbian is his Four Styles Project. Each project consists of the same work re-created in many different styles. Each picture is one of more than 100 of a STYLES PROJECT ONE, TWO, THREE or Four.
The white in the picture is the canvas that is unpainted and the light is not caused by bad photography, but intended and painted. These paintings are painted on flat canvas and not on 3D boxes. This is a quotation from Saatchionline.com [[30]]. I have obtained images from a few of these works from the artist and will upload them here.
