About
Over Mij

A creative heart from the day I landed on earth. I was born in the seventies in a little village in the middle of the Netherlands and grew up relatively protected and free. Dancing, playing, coloring, decorating, making my own clothing from the age of ten, following my own path from a young age which led me to Belgium, Indonesia, Australia, Thailand……
Not really conforming to the standards of society, always worked for myself in different ways: importing beautiful products of Indonesia, handcrafting all kinds of objects, clothing and jewelry….selling this on markets and festivals….The way I dress myself has always been a way for me to express myself and to stay authentic and different.
Later I also studied Chinese medicine, as I am always very fascinated by healing and transformation and growth, learning energywork and holistic views on our health and beings. Running a healing practice with all that I learned for 12 years.
Then my creativity again wanted to get more attention and I started working with leather, making bags and car interiors, clothing….and founded the webshop "Bohemian Treasures".
When I arrived at my midlife I sold the webshop and gave myself a sabbatical in which I started to paint and deepen my creative path.
In painting the possibilities are endless; I can project my inner visions and dimensional worlds onto the canvas. The frequencies I feel when I am around animals, when I am in nature, when I feel the vast lands of Australia, the abundance of the flowers in springtime, the landscapes I enter in meditation…
Having two beautiful sons, I love to be in the Netherlands and stay in close contact with them, but I also like to travel and expand my mind with other cultures and especially the wildlife and nature of the other continents. It opens my mind and heart, it opens new perspectives and ideas.
My Art is a projection of my inner worlds, my wisdom, my experiences, my connection to the other realms….onto the canvas.
My aim and hope is to bring light and wisdom into my creations and through them to the spaces where they have the privilege to hang on the walls. To inspire, to give hope, to encourage, to expand, to rise.
