Vonne van der Meulen is a Dutch abstract artist born 21 june 1958 How she works is influenced by her past work as an actress and director. Her unwavering interest in developing herself personally and the insights from that are of great importance for her work. She started painting and drawing as an autodidact and later on she studied Art Therapy and drawing and painting at Academie de Leuwenburgh in Amsterdam. For a while her artwork was more in the background and she wasn’t focused on finishing her work, ready to be shown. Her own work became more important from 2016 and she started to develop her own style. In the beginning also working figuratively, she gradually began to focus more on abstract and abstract landscapes. Vonne is inspired by movements, shapes and colors appearing in nature, and by the connection these aspects of nature can make with experiences, feelings and the little things of daily life. Vonne combines pieces of all mentioned elements in a new context, a world of its own. This results in abstract landscapes or a total abstract artwork. Her works expresses a poetic view and feeling. Her work reflects tension and harmonie in the individu and between the world around, the power of imperfection, but also the beauty of life and nature. Since april 2020 she has been working on integrating geometric spaces and shapes in her work with sharp edges and lines. The interplay between geometrie and movement intrigues her. Flow and delineate.
