Hi, I’m Madelon

A Dutch artist living in the south of the Netherlands. I’m 39 years old, a mother of two beautiful daughters, and married to my rock.

At seventeen, I was accepted into art school, but life took me in a different direction. Twenty years later, I found my way back to painting — and it quickly became clear that this was where I was meant to be.

My art is inspired by light, colour, nature and the journey of life. I love creating expressive, colourful paintings that capture feelings of freedom, hope, joy and inner strength.

My own journey has taught me that even in the darkest moments, there can always be a way back to the light. That idea is at the heart of my work.

With my paintings, I hope to bring colour and a little more light into people’s lives — and to remind them to keep choosing the light.

 

How I Started Painting again

Growing up, I struggled with health issues that had a major impact on my life. After years of healing, I began to feel like myself again. I regained my energy, positivity and creativity — and that’s when I started painting again.

Inspired by what I had overcome and humbled by what I had experienced, my perspective on life changed completely. The way I see the world today naturally translates into my art.

My work is about empowerment, healing and hope. It is about the light that stands in the way of the darkness.

 

With Love,
Madelon
