Discover the charm of nature in the colors of art.
Welcome to my personal gallery. I want to take you on a journey in a unique way. My art focuses primarily on working with nature, drawing inspiration from the animal kingdom. Much of my art will be painted on teak panels. Each panel is unique, guaranteeing a one-of-a-kind piece.

The sparrow looks like it could fly away at any moment. Great job!

Actually, only a few words are necessary: Super skilled and a sweet, thoughtful (painter/drawer) artist. She listens carefully to your wishes, stays in touch throughout the process, and asks periodically if you are satisfied with the preliminary result. Furthermore, she takes the design and the piece of wood into account: checking if they match. Very happy with my purchase.

I only take commissions I'm passionate about
In some cases, I also accept commissions, but under strict conditions. I do not create anything that doesn't have my heart in it. If the photos do not appeal to me, I pass them on. Indie was one of my commissions. That beautiful blonde dog drew me in. The client and I went through dozens of photos together until one spoke to me. That is where the artwork of Indie emerged.
