My name is Anika, mother of three 'littles' and I've always loved drawing and capturing beauty through photography. As a child I loved sitting in the Picturebook-section of the library and go through all the fun coloured, inspiring pages. I still love picturebooks so much!

 

I've made up stories for my sisters at night, made little magazines with my nephews and nieces and began to write books on our family computer, although never finished them.

 

I took one year of classes for Illustration at the (HKU) 'Hogeschool voor de Kunsten in Utrecht'.

I started picking up my sewing machine and began a clothdoll Etsyshop (Puppa Dolls) and combined my love for fibers, colors, natural dyes, upcycling and illustrating there.

 

Now, years later I got back into painting, drawing and artjournaling again.

 

Besides art I love anything nature and together with my husband we own a small marketgarden five minutes from our house. www.hofvanhedentuin.nl
