May's Featured Artist -->Maria van Bruggen
Because it is about myself I will simply copy my short bio:
Of course I could start my biography with writing that I started painting from the moment I could hold a pencil in my hands.....of course I could write that I couldnt imagine my life without art by my side.....but I think I will be just brutally honest and will say that I AM AN ARTOHOLIC . Yep....
My life started at 28 July 1970 and from than and on art was always following me. I simply couldnt get away from it because it was always by my side like a guardian dog. It is my daily breath of fresh air, my thoughts, feelings and simply jokes that I can transform into something very visual. I enjoy every tiny moment of my creations simply because they are part of me. I LOVE art and I hate writing biographies so it will be probably a very short one.
I consider myself as a VERY lucky person. I live together with my best in the world husband Etienne, two kids Melody and Daniel and bunches of pets (and when I say bunches I truly mean it...). I am full time self employed illustrator/artist and good part of it that I being actually paid doing something I love so much. Another incredibly lucky part that it happens that many other people like my art too - so it is being sold, licensed and used all through the world by companies, publications, magazines and just private people (over 500 last year!).
Do you know that it is actually a great feedback to know that my art is making somebody feel better? Thank you my fans - you are the best!
And now go to the best part, I promise it will be "talking" much better than my bio - just go and visit my gallery...........
