My paintings and illustrations are inspired by magical and in some cases even metaphysical realm, they contain traces of folklore, fairy tale, mythology and love for nature woven into everyday life of a mother, book lover or a day dreamer. Celebration of nature and motherhood is often one and the same, intertwined in one moment captured on the painting.
In my work I try to share my observations of the ever-changing seasons and my will to be more in tune with nature and wheel of the year.
Painting is my profession but also a therapy where I explore my inner mind and try to bring up those deep down buried thoughts into the light of my paper. I am facing my fears, illuminating my unconscious mind and walk through the forest of my childhood memories.
Thank you so much for being here and making me company on my journey to understand this complex universe of worlds inside and outside of us.

I live with my husband and daughter in a small medieval city of Ghent in Belgium.

For my even love of drawing and painting I earned MFA in both fields.

I love to read and collect books, but never have enough shelves to put them on. They are often scattered all around my home. My favourite writer is Haruki Murakami but I love to read Carl Jung as well as I am very inspired by both of them in my work.
