Arida | Roeleke 2023 Artwork

My Name is Roeleke, from the Netherlands. I am inspired by my life experiences and in my seeking for the truth. I receive inspiration through nature, in my dreams at night, meditations and in quiet moments. I don’t really remember the moment I started painting. It just sort of happened spontaneously when I was traveling and staying with a friend who is an artist in 2017. I didn’t go to art school, I learned and I am learning by doing. Painting helps me to express what I can’t expressed in words. The artworks are books to me. Written for me, by me, through me... and to be shared, with you. You'll find (sacred) geometry in my art and symbolism. I was invited to present my work at a Dutch art festival in 2019 and I am looking forward to exhibiting my art in the future. It’s my wish to ‘color’ more rooms and uplift more people through the art. Whether people desire to have a piece in their homes or not, I like to believe that it benefits people when they take a look at my art pieces, pause and let themselves be taken in by them. Feel free to send me a message and I will be happy to get back to you.
