The Big Apple (2023) Painting by Martine Weber

Hi there! I'm Martine Weber, the creative force behind IM'Art, a soulful journey where every stroke hopes to be an homage to our world's beauty, diversity, and contradictions, advocating for peace through the universal language of art. 

IM'Art is nestled in a multigenerational community on the Veemarkt in Utrecht, where several artworks grace the "Kas" (greenhouse), our communal space at Kas&Co.

My artistic journey is a lively, eclectic exploration, evolving me into a versatile artist. Beyond the canvas, I weave images with music, poetry, or narratives. Each painting is a tale—a subtle contemplation that offers glimpses into contradictions or even illusions.

My artwork invites viewers into uncertain, altered realities, embodying stories, metaphors, emotions, or even souls, especially in portraits (of humans and animals).

In my early twenties, I dedicated five years to art lessons, including a year studying at the School of Art in the United States, focusing on portraits and nature. Life led me to a career and family, but my creative threads persisted in stories, illustrations, and music.

Resuming painting last year, my art mirrors experiences, emotions, and the balance of a creative soul finding expression on canvas.

As a wholehearted life artist, each creation at IM'Art holds a unique, subtle energy—reflecting the 'True Colors' of my soul.

Imagine my creative process as a story, often starting with a charcoal sketch. Backgrounds, crafted with acrylic paint, serve as a canvas for my imagination, unfolding through a versatile blend of media.

Beyond painting, I wear the hats of a composer and writer. Also operating as 'Sofie Weber,' my musical creations and the tales of Sofie & Pawgles come to life through illustrations.

Open to commissions, my art spans cityscapes, dreamscapes, portraits, and pet portraits. Drawn to my style? I'm here to bring your vision to life.

Thanks for joining me on this artistic journey. Let's paint the world just a little more beautiful together.

Warm regards, Martine Weber.
