stripes (2018) Schilderij door Marleen

hola, i am from Belgium and went to the highschool in Ghent. My professional job was trader in aluminium profils and i had to travel a lot. 

This busy life stops for me around 2008, i became ill and was forced to do nothing.

In 2012 i met a new man in my life and we decide to move (parttime) to the sun, it became Spain / Marbella.

it's there that my painterstory start;

 i am autodidact painter, and  after i moved to Marbella, with the intention to meet other people and also as a therapy. I liked to do something, i liked to  follow flamenco classes but they where full booked ! so i went to an "taller d'arte" in Marbella.

the beginning was searching for materials, technic and the most difficult was the subject,

animals and people is not so my "dada" i prefer plants, a green pallet but with lots of work to find the right nuances

and "pour me defouler" i paint abstract, my fantasy.

Since the beginning of corona i paint at home, and my inspiration is the nature, specially flowers and leaves. 

Were I go I take pictures and a part of that i put on the canvas.Also the almost blue sky ans sunny weather give me lots of energy.

I hope you can appreciate my work, see you soon, Marleen
