ABOUT 

Since a few years Cecile developed her creativity into a professional artist. Working from her indoors studio in Vlissingen she makes mostly graphic designs, which are painted with special techniques and natural handmade paint. 

​

Through all her experiences in the past, a fashion-textile background, restoration painter and many craft courses, she learned her skills. 

Cecile her style is formed in the past and through her personality. Nowadays her inspiration comes from the coastal surroundings where she lives, combined with her interest in nature, architecture and modernism.

​

The process of making an artwork consists of several steps.

Cecile creates the design by drawing many sketches and she works these out by hand into a perfect design.

The making of the paint is based on old recipes, using natural ingredients and pigments, a time consuming process. Founded on her experience this results in unique rich colours.

The painting itself requires special techniques to get very fine results.

Also the finishing touch of framing, like the cutting of the passe-partouts is done by her.

​

All the elements mentioned above come together in Cecile's artworks, that's what makes her work so refined and unique.
