La Eve

My passion for art began when I attended the fashion academy in Amsterdam. Every week, we had to draw a live model and visit a museum. […] Through model drawing, I discovered my passion for illustration, especially drawing and painting people. Acrylic paint became my preferred medium. […] In my current collection, I use mixed media. I combine acrylic paint with pastel chalk, oil pastels, and sometimes even collages. When my husband decided to work on Aruba for a few years, I faced a dilemma: a beautiful island with great weather, but what would I do there? The answer came quickly: painting. […] Born in Curaçao, living in the Netherlands, and temporarily in Aruba, I draw my inspiration from the things around me.
