Three silhouettes appear in a difuse light. Will they act out a ritual? Are they on a stage? What can be their goal? They will make a choice: proceed to the light or step back in the deep shadows.

Willy is a professional artist, her work is represented in private and public collections all over Europe. She lives and works in The Hague, The Netherlands.
She is the recipient of many prizes, like The Prize awarded by the Public, Museum Rijswijk.
The main themes of the work are related to making choices, searching, taking leave and light versus dark. Inspired by memories and personal stories, the paintings refer to deeper layers of meaning, creating a timeless and tranquil world where figures try to find their way. In diffused light, the subjects remain shrouded in shadows.
I draw inspiration from the chiaroscuro tradition in Italian and Dutch art through the centuries, and from theatrical- and opera staging.
My medium is acrylics, because my paintings are built up in many layers, which acrylics make possible. Since 2021 I am working in watercolour and ink on paper.
I have studied and worked under the famous Dutch artist Klaas Gubbels.
