Do you realise you are made of stars? My paintings and prints are an everyday reminder of our divine nature. An interplay of darkness and light, in a balanced outburst of colours. What started as my own exploration of the world, whereby the spiritual island of Bali has been one of the most profound game changers, is becoming more and more universal everyday.
Do you want an everyday reminder of your colourful essence?
Een mooie dinsdag in september. Een enorme behoefte aan koffie om 17.00 uur ’s middags. It didn’t make sense aangezien ik al bewust een tijdje gestopt was met het drinken van het zwarte goud. Iets met overbelaste bijnieren en een Chinese medicijnman. Maar de gedachte......

I discovered I was able to become the empty vessel and let what needs to be spoken, be spoken through me by means of colours. What started as a journey of a scared little girl depicting her journey and portraying her exploration, is becoming more and more universal as emptying myself out is an ongoing process. The extremely healing effect my paintings have on people, made that I was finally able to embrace, love and appreciate my true nature.
Being a writer myself too, I am familiar with the Tao concept which says that words are nothing more than fingers poiting to the moon. By focusing on the fingers, you will never experience the moon. Since words are always bound to grammar and social structural agreements, I find even more freedom of expression in the art of painting.
