Save the date for “Gelée royale”, the new group show at Galerie Rompone. It will be my first group show with paintings abroad. You are welcome to visit the vernissage on Friday, December 10th at 7pm at Galerie Rompone in Köln, Germany.

Do you also long for those long sultry summer nights, cozy with neighbors, family and friends around a campfire ? And a refreshing dip during the lazy hot day? I’ll stay positive and waiting for the summer to happen. x Acrylics on linen, 150 X 200 cm (59 X 78,7 in)

In my series The Mothers Before, I explore the lives of my female ancestors through painting, starting with genealogical research. This journey allows me to connect with their stories and ultimately introduces their legacies to my daughter, enriching our understanding of family history.

In order to prepare myself on a painting I do research and make sketches on paper. Often with acrylics, ink and/or oil pastels. Sometimes with collages. It is to get a feeling of the person and items I will portray in the final painting and a try out of the colors to use. A few of these (often little) sketch works I will frame and sell in my webshop.
