I'm 34 years old and living in the Netherlands with my husband, daughter and two adorable cats. I'm an interior architect by profession, running my own studio, www.studio-bird.nl, where I help people shape their spaces with creativity and care.

​

But there's another part of me, a creative force that’s been there since childhood, especially when it comes to animals. They've always had my heart. Drawing them, imagining them, bring my fantasy to life ,it’s my way of connecting with something deeper.

​

Magic isn’t just make-believe, it lives in the real world and animals are its truest messengers. Their wild hearts, quiet wisdom, and untamed beauty inspire everything I create. I work with digital techniques in a unique blend of collage, surrealistic fantasy, and vibrant color. The result is a style that brings out the magic of each animal in its own way, playful, powerful, or quietly mysterious.

​

Through my art, I don’t just paint fantasy creatures. I celebrate the real magic that exists all around us.
Every tail, paw, and wing tells a story and this is the world I invite you into.
