Dreaming. Embracing the quiet of the night before the day begins.

Following the light. Embracing every part of the journey listening and learning. Sometimes the story unfolds different, but that doesn’t mean less beautiful…

Trusting the process. Free to try again, appreciating the unexpected.

So much passion. Open heart seeing more, my feet on the ground.

Stillness reminds me this present moment. My mind and harmony with my heart embracing the stillness Loving embrace.

 '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.

I love the ocean.

Gazing toward the horizon,

I feel freedom,

possibility,

the future opening.

I look to where the light comes from,

where beginnings live.

The ocean lifts me,

fills me with quiet strength,

turns my thoughts toward hope.

Free from fear.

As free as the ocean.

She calms my soul.

Magic dawn, silence and calmness. The first rays of sun enlightens my heart. Feeling the love and kindness. Early morning sunrays, beauty in the serenity of silence.

I am a river, clear as crystal every morning, my path drawn by the wind. I am a river going down over wide stones. The moon shimmers in jade green water. Follow the river.

Capturing the colors of the beaches of the West Frisian Islands. Looking at the coast, it’s the play of transparency for me. The mighty tides shape everything around them. Open to the unexpected, capturing the spirit of free-flowing, balancing the finished and unfinished. Let this piece remind you to embrace fragility and cherish the little nothings.

Trees are magical and autumn is the season to let go. “Our present situation is the result of all the things we have left behind” and the trees that release their leaves during fall are a wonderful reminder. They whisper “Next season, we all will get new leaves and you will too.”

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

The lighter side of life a little bit slower… A little bit less prepared leaving room for life to surprise you with so many wonderful things. Coloring the lines finding the silver lining. Light & pure. Softness with strength, new sensations. The light dances with the purity of the natural.

This painting is inspired by a woman I met during my travels to the Caribbean coast of Nicaragua. Her eyes and facial expression were so captivating, so strong, so full of love. I sketched her a lot and finished this painting after coming back home to my atelier.

The sun rises
and the morning dew unveils its magic.
Shimmering droplets
adorning the earth with nature's jewels.
A moment of purity and rejuvenation. 
Pause, reflect, 
and cherish the beauty of the world.

I love the early morning dew on the flowers and fields sourrounding my home. Touched by the first sun strokes, they shine so brightly and create a magical atmosphere.

Morning sunlight, beauty in the serenity of silence. Portraits are expressive of one’s deepest emotions, thoughts, feelings. It creates an experience that allows one to gain clarity or connect with the artwork on a deeper level.

Morning dew. Mirror the magical starlight to bless our day after a peaceful night. Morning dew. In the first chill of morning light like tiny pearls upon the leaves. They make mornings a bliss…

A portrait painting of Tresor who reminds me of a picture in my grandmother’s old family photobook. When closing my eyes, I still remember all photos in there. I see the beautiful garden, the little village and those sweet memories feel like a warm hug from the past. Who does Tresor remind you of?

My art has some whimsy, some wonder, and a whole lot of romance for the beauty of this life.
