How My Passion Began
I’d love to share with you the story of how my passion started. It’s a journey that’s close to my heart and one that’s brought me a great sense of fulfillment and joy.
I was born in The Netherlands, and I have been interested in art at a very early age. Painting and drawing have been a part of my life since my childhood.
During my years in The Netherlands I always longed to live at one stage in Israel.
My dream has come true. I have moved with my husband to Israel and my inspiration blossomed once I became part of that beautiful country. All over again I created my own artistic expression, and I was able to actualize and follow my own style.
I also lived in England. My home was in the countryside, away from all hustle and bustle. Nature surrounded my country dwelling, and it was a magical spot, characterized by a commanding view – almost pastoral tranquility – winding country roads and beautiful views over the hills. All these elements I used in my paintings in my own specific way. The diversity of nature has inspired my creativity.
More about Me
Whilst I lived in England I also qualified in Fashion and Design and designed unusual garments and hats for a number of years. My designed hats were very flamboyant. My designs were quite popular, especially since I made my designs personalized. I took several pottery classes too, learned many techniques and so I developed my own unusual style with making pots and bowls. My love for pottery and painting grew with the years. I took several art classes in England to enhance my painting and glazing techniques.
Distinctive Style
I decided to focus just on painting and not anymore on making pottery, designing unusual garments or hats. My paintings are reflections of my emotions and feelings. I let my mind take over and sometimes I imagine clear and visual images, these are often colorful. I found myself completely absorbed in this new activity. Every time I create a new work of art, I derive great pleasure in doing so.
Now, I can’t imagine a life without it. It’s become a fundamental part of who I am, and it’s given me an outlet to express myself, to learn, and to connect with others who share the same passion. I’m so grateful for this journey, and I can’t wait to see where it takes me next.
My art is free of restraint and occasionally the outcome of my paintings is not always what I envisioned initially. My work is therefore unique in its own way. My paintings are appreciated worldwide. It gives me great pleasure therefore, to enrich the interior of art lovers with my art.
I am using acrylic paint and other media.
