Chestnut, brown, terra, sienna… An ode to the colors of the earth, the colors of life.

SHE RISES WITH THE SUN

Soft coral earth beneath

her feet,

The sun slowly sets over the land.

The horizon whispers,

She will rise again.

Shadow and future intertwined,

Threads of all that she is woven together.

Here and tomorrow,

Even when the night feels long,

The sun has promised

It will always return.

Her eyes sparkle,

Carrying the light.

The light of connection,

With all that surrounds her,

Through every layer of herself,

She carries the sun.

Golden light softly touching her face, creating a magical atmosphere...

There is a magical touch imparted by the flowers and their softness. I think it has a positive influence on our minds. From printed to real flowers, let your home bloom anew with this painting.

xTiny

It’s a new day dawning. Let’s take bathe in the fresh sunlight. It’s a new day dawning. Looking for the light. 

There is no shadow without light. It’s a new day dawning. Always following the light.

Soft lines, a hint of a female outline. What is she dreaming of?

Inspired by my travels to Polynesia.

This abstract is created in memory of the beautiful serene Kyoto. “Kasshoku” means brown and I love Kyoto with its traditional brown wooden houses and the temple surrounded by cherry blossom trees.

Nature, female faces and nudes are my main inspiration. Love for the curves, the solidness, the sensuality. As an observer you are invited to read between the lines and let your own story evolve.

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.

xTiny

Morning Haze. 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…

“Indah” means beautiful in Indonesia and I painted this portrait on one of my many travels to this magical chain of islands. Beauty wherever you go, inside and out…

Evening Glow

Palms whispering,
their leaves sway slow,
a gentle sea breeze
begins to blow.

The sky is warm,
in golden glow,
so peaceful
as the sun sinks low.

And with it comes
a silent vow:
tomorrow brings
a fresh new now.

xTiny

Still life. Feeling the quietness, embracing the softness of each moment. Calming still life.

It was around sunset when I wandered through the streets of a small village in India, where time seemed to have stood still. A herd of buffaloes made their way home from the fields, their heavy steps kicking up dust in the golden light. Women were busy cooking, baking chapati over an open fire, while others returned from the fields, balancing bundles of firewood on their heads. Children laughed and played in the street.

Three women stood together, watching me with curious eyes. They smiled and gestured for me to come closer.  “Where are you from?” they asked, in a mix of English and hand gestures. They invited me to join them for chai. Once we were inside, they removed their headscarves, just us women among ourselves, it was so lovely.

As we sat together, sipping our tea, I made a few sketches to capture the moment. This portrait, ‘Rising Sun’, is a tribute to that lovely unforgettable encounter, a memory of warmth, connection, and the quiet beauty of everyday life.

Let’s go on an adventure, a boat lost between the clear summer sky and the shimmering deep blue hue of the wide ocean. Invite a part of the ocean and the sky inside your home with this painting from the time I spent in Tasmania.

Love to paint on old bookpaper and old faded paper, painting with japanese brushes and twigs, using thin layers of ink & paint. Old paper sucks up the ink and paint quickly, giving the paintings an open and transparent look. After a few hours the ink and paint begins to spread a bit, blurring previously sharp lines, and figures become distorted, love this mysterious and dreamy feeling.

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?   

xTiny

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

 Colorful joy, inspired by my love of color.

Color is so powerful, it sets the mood for the story I’m telling through my art. I use color very intuitive, I do not start with a color palette, but start painting directly, I am fearless when it comes to color..

‘Color is a power which directly influences the soul’ by Wassily Kandinsky
