The Swing Painting

'What if nothing else matters?' Marianne van den Heuvel, transgender in art. Born into the world of music she discovered that her true soul was fine art. She made a rigorous step, put her violinbow aside to pick up a paintbrush. The source stayed the same, her artistic soul. Watercolor is her medium. Not an easy one but hey, what if nothing else matters? Oil and water? Opposites in life, but how about in fine art? Van den Heuvel's creations are recognizable by the vibrant colors she uses. Vibrant as the burst of life itself with the energy of pigments meeting water. Also experimenting with surfaces as synthetic paper or watercolor on canvas, because: what if? 'I love to push towards extremes and see what happens.'
