ABOUT
Marja
MY
Background
Born and raised in Holland, I studied art at college, but became a potter for 25 years before picking up the brush again.
​
I moved to the south coast of England in 1987 and settled in Dorset after having lived in different countries across Europe. I felt a deep spiritual connection with the Dorset countryside and my love of this beautiful new homeland inspired me to paint the stunning landscapes and seascapes across the region.
​
The ancient Dorset landscape offers me unlimited potential to express my love for painting with many different colours and styles.
My paintings are a window to my world,
and the way I experience it today
HEALING
Art
I am a Reiki Master and the paintings in my "Healing Art" series are infused with Reiki Healing and are an aid for visualisation and Manifestation.
​
I´m drawn to alternative medicine and spiritual healing and in my healing paintings, I bring together my experience as an artist with my learning about Reiki, runes, tarot and the power of symbols.
I often paint them as commissions and feel privileged to participate in such conversations. The heart knows what it longs for.
