I paint nature’s soul.
Realism with a pulse and hints of abstraction.
Follow the journey – through light, color, and connection.
Created with oil, pastel & pencil – always guided by feeling.

Oscar reminded me of something:

Sometimes we knock on the window,
Not realizing a door stands wide open nearby.
We tell ourselves all doors are closed...but are they?
Maybe we don't have to try so hard.

He plays not for the audience,
But what listens beyond the blue.

Need your help: black passe partout or gray? I think black. But that will give more reflection when it's behind the glass.

Courage:
I promised you catdrawings: This is the first and the oldest. Not detailed. More an impression of a bold moment.
"This drawing comes with a little poem — scroll, and check the comments for the full story. ❤️" ( Dutch and English)

A colouredpencil drawing of a cat and a mouse locked in a tense moment. The cat waits, eyes glowing, while the mouse stands firm, fearless. A poetic scene of courage and defiance.

** The Raven sees you -
not just your face, but your essence.
He looks through the surface,
Into the strength you've forgotten you carry.
He's not here to challenge you,
but to remind you:
You're ready. **

Small, but powerful.
A portal in beeswax, shaped as a tiny bookmark.
Whispering soft magic between the pages.
The portal is open. Will you step through?

I painted this when walking wasn’t possible.
Creating gave me strength — and direction.
Healing is never one-size-fits-all.
We all have to find our own path.

This young orangutan’s gaze holds a world of innocence and quiet knowing.
A bond with its mother that lasts for years, teaching when to hold on — and when to let go.
