I always had a thing for reusing materials. When I was younger, I inherited boxes of old treasures from my grandma and grandpa who was a painter too. From brushes, to ribbons, from paper to sewing templates. For this abstracted landscape artwork, I used their antique paper mixed with found paper from Canada and cut-outs from my old paintings. Dream away in a coral and chocolate landscape.

The structure in this painting is so strong, you can almost feel the brush strokes. I enjoy playing with colours, combining small highlights in a nude palette.

Live for the tiny little things in life. Life is a series of thousands of tiny little miracles. Live for sunrises and sunsets. The sound of the ocean, the smell of the rain and starry nights. Live for the small words of praise, a smile. The tiny things like a good cup of coffee or a fresh smelling flower, a handwritten love note or the smile of a stranger. Live for the tiny things in life, because they will make you realize that this is what life is about. Let’s dance in the sunlight, wearing wildflowers in our hair. Live for the tiny little things.

I drew this paining watching a beautiful sunset in Poylnesia, the colours shifted in tones with every inch the sun set further into the coean, merged with the sea.

 'There are always flowers for those who want to see them...‘  (words by H. Matisse)

Nature is calming and relaxing, and a painting with flowers instantly brings a feeling of wellbeing to a room, and reminds us everyday to enjoy the beauty of nature.

Morning sun in my atelier, rays lightening up the room. Could a smile may be the same as sunshine? Cause it banishes winter coldness from the human countenance. Sweet summer morning..

I drew this portrait during one of my travels to the Atlas Mountains in Morocco as an homage to a young women I met in a small village. Her bright look and eyes filled my heart with joy.

Shades of nudes and pink, all cut outs from vintage paper, which I collect during my travels and keep like treasures. Creating landscapes from little nothings.

You’re with me wherever I go. A sensual sway embracing my sunkissed skin. Chasing the sun as it’s rising. Burning bright, cinnamon & gold. The horizon... wherever I go.

A combination of vintage papers to create layers to help the story unfold.

I look out of the window. Soothing sunshine and I think of you. You linger on my mind calming peace. Soothing…

That inner calm, I open my heart to the source. Soothing…

Calming silence.
