Creative Process

As an artist, I love exploring colours, textures and materials as you can see from the variety of compositions and brushstrokes in The Gallery of Works. Having lived in Argentina, USA, South Africa, Germany, Hong Kong, and now The Netherlands – such varied life experiences including a lot of travel, play into my creative efforts. Sometimes the focus is narrow and intentional on an arrangement of objects or capturing a memorable view. At other times, the movement is wildly free flowing in emotion and imagination. I continue to explore this creative contrast between the details & specific and a more wide-angle spontaneous inspiration with great interest.

My studio is located in a 120-year old primary school building in a quiet neighbourhood in Scheveningen, The Hague, NL. In the building are other small business owners and the atmosphere is calm, friendly, sunny and airy with high ceilings. Because we are near the shore, the familiar call of seagulls drifts in the open windows. Most of the time, I create there alone, and some magic happens when other artist friends come by to paint together in a cosy setting incubating our creative ideas. It is my happy place. Additionally, a few times each month, the studio transforms into a haven for meditation and well-being with small group sessions for relaxation: guided meditations, mindful movement and sound therapy. No matter the setting in the studio space, the energy feels good and this nourishes my learning journey.
