INSPIRATION
My Art is my poetry, it is my instrument of choice.
I have been an artist my whole life.
As a young girl growing up
in the Netherlands, I saw pictures of paintings by Vincent van Gogh, and
I knew from then on that I was going to be an artist.
Later,
the drawings of Picasso were influential and Franz Marc and the early
Kandinsky never stopped to inspire me... Color and Line.
After moving to Arizona in 1979, I discovered Friz Sholder in the early 80s.
My studio, "Blue Amazon Ranch and Studio", was located in the foothills
of Rio Verde, Arizona.
In 2018, I moved to Goshen, CT.
For me, Horses symbolize a world of freedom, truth, and pureness.
Horses and Nature never fail to inspire me.
I did not choose Art, it chose me!
