make room for what matters
Choose art that feels like you.
You are not broken. You don´t need to "find" yourself. You were never really lost.
But life can feel fragmented. And in those moments it's easy to feel defeated.
Until we remember this: our experiences, emotions, and memories are not flaws to fix; they make us who we really are. Made up of a thousand different pieces and beautifully unique. And yet, we are connected, to each other, to the universe, to something larger that carries us.

six quiet promises
"a gentle reminder from my upcoming collage collection: keep walking your path, one honest step at a time"
Hi, I’m Maartje, a Dutch mosaic and collage artist. I didn’t grow up making art. For years, I lived in my head, working with data. Until, at 40, something in me shifted. My heart needed to feel again. My hands needed to create.
A so-called ‘chronic’ back injury in 2012 led me down an unexpected path: one of emotional healing. To my surprise, as I began to heal within, my body began to follow. That journey changed everything.
Now, through mosaics and collages, I tell stories of self-love, becoming, and the quiet power that connects us all. My art is how I remember who I am, and how I invite others to do the same.
when my art resonates
Grace"This piece reminds me how connected I am: to nature, to the planet, to life!"
Suze"Peaceful. It actually makes me feel like I am stepping out of my rushed life into a serene spa session. A peaceful moment, just for me, all thoughts can stay outside for a moment."
Christine"Your eye for colours and shapes is exquisite. What a beautiful pattern!"

You weren’t made to stay quiet.
This original mosaic marks the moment you stop playing nice and start being real. It's that turning point when you find your voice. Maybe it’s a little rusty. Maybe it doesn’t follow the lines others expect. But it’s yours.
No more shrinking to keep the peace. No more changing your colors and losing yourself to blend in. This piece stands for owning your truth, grit, grace, and all.
‘Don’t try to be nice, be real’ is a bold visual reminder: your voice matters, even when it’s offbeat. Maybe especially when it’s offbeat. Because it makes this world a much more exciting place.
