I grew up in a home where art was always present. My mother is an artist and paints in oil in her studio at home. As a child, I spent a lot of time there, surrounded by paint, canvases, and brushes. I learned how to paint from her, and I was always creating something.

Alongside painting, I have always had a passion for interior design and styling. Lampshades are often quite neutral, while they actually have the power to give a space much more character. That is why I started making unique, handmade lampshades in all kinds of shapes and styles.

I now live in Amsterdam, where I have my own garden studio. Here I create paintings, design lampshades, and host painting workshops. During these workshops, I invite you to step away from the business of everyday life and spend time being creative. My studio has space for four people, but I also offer workshops on location for larger groups
