Today
Im so excited about this feature... I want to introduce you the woman
behind this ethereal illustrations, apparently a "normal" woman who
loves shopping, her family a great concert or simply sit and observe
everything and enjoy the sunset. With her sketchbook under her arms
Marjolein Caljouw captures the women sensuality , vulnerability and
sensitivity with a sexy and edgy side for her latest series.
Caljouw finds inspiration on everything and
everyone, but she admits to be more attracted to the "things" closer to
her, than a landscape : "I like the behaviour of people and animals" She said. On her sketchbook the illustrations just flow as the time goes, she explain this action as a "non-stop process"
on the other hand when Marjolein is working on a project she makes a
rough tiny version of it, a mood board and then she starts the big
thing, all planned and organized.
Another thing that impress me about this talented
artist is her ability to paint in almost any surface, she has done
amazing artwork on wood, canvas, metal, furniture or even cars she is
not only a creative soul there is a lot of technique and practice behind
her masterpieces.
" My head is a chaos so I need to organize myself , I need a day planner to let my life flow like water"
I admire her so much, there is a balance between the person and the
artist, definitely a 28 years old woman with a clear vision of what she
wants in life, and keep track of it on her diary. ( As I said before,
she has time for everything).
At last Marjolein answered with the first word that came to her mind..
- With or whithout music? WITH
- Day or night? Night!
- Planned or organic? Planned.
- Food? Healthy stuff.
- A place? The beach.
- A flower? Peony
